If truly the former, pretend it's OSS with no AI at all where one maintainer actually reviews and spots bugs in PRs vs. one who just rubber stamps and merges anything.

  Thr number of folks when there is a power outage saying "a transformer exploded" as a first approximation is depressing. (Transformers *can* fail but 99.9% of the time what folks report is at most a blown pyro fuse)
