Yeah. Looking at the code samples in that first page was pretty interesting. They're cherry-picked, of course, but still it's a little galling to see which ones SQ gave a lower score.
I definitely wouldn't want AI to be autonomously using that as a guide without doing some fairly serious internal A/B testing first. Kind of like for cyclomatic complexity, it's just too easy to find ways to maliciously comply. And if that's what you ask AI to do then that's likely what you're going to get.
