Who bans line smoothing algorithms? Do you have a link?

you are failing to get the point

it's an (maybe the most) extreme example of something which is "gen AI" but not problematic and as such a naive "rule" saying "no gen AI at all" is a pretty bad competition rule design

I get your point. I don't get who you're arguing with.

You're saying banning line smoothing algorithms for ethical reasons make no sense. I totally agree!

I'm wondering if this actually happens.
