> QGIS is trusted by organisations because they know they can contribute back, they can hire contributors for support, training and feature. As a community project, this is something we really want to protect

We have gone from "LLM-slop is gonna ruin open source projects" to we wanna "protect" humans so they can make some dough on the side training and stuff. If human coders become the bottleneck in the chain, the solution is obvious and there's only so much protection anyone can do.

This "human bottleneck" is why we have QGIS in the first place. I think they deserve a bit more respect than that.

Which chain? It’s not like there’s much productivity going on. There’s a lot of activity for very little impact.
