>> I simply extrapolated your stated position by applying it to another, relatable, situation.

> The extrapolation led to something I didn't imply.

I extrapolated my interpretation of your position to make the point that to "revise and refine" is equivalent to "generate", in that the latter is the effect of the former without shrouding the source of the work.

> ... I'm sure that'd have been very welcome if you hadn't posed it in a combative manner that comes across as a 'take down' of my comment.

This is your interpretation. Mine is that I have not made ad hominem responses nor anything similar.

> So your extrapolation stands well on its own. I just don't see the need to pose it as a sort of "take down" on my comment.

This is the second time you've used the phrase "take down." Having a differing opinion and expressing such is not a "take down."

In that we most certainly are. In addition, I believe those who use LLMs to produce content as if it were their own work is unacceptable. This might be different for someone else, depending on one's definition of what is plagiarism.

>> And you might want to review same after originally authoring

> I have. I've found nothing in the guidelines that forbid me from ...

Guidelines do not forbid, they suggest for the betterment of everyone's experience.

  Don't be curmudgeonly. Thoughtful criticism is fine, but 
  please don't be rigidly or generically negative.
  
  Please don't fulminate. Please don't sneer, including at 
  the rest of the community. 

  Please don't post shallow dismissals, especially of other 
  people's work.
