There is no “extra junk that distracts from the conversation” in the post you’re responding to, and I and others are trying to point that out to you. You don’t seem to be responding to those points much if at all.

(Personally I'd still like to see the author clarify if they used an LLM or not, but that's more for my own personal curiosity at this point, to check if my radar needs adjusting.)
