I link to it multiple times in TFA and quote the specific thing I'm talking about here in there to explain that possible confounder. I think I've done more than the work I'm obligated to it.do to make all of the relevant information available to you. You are just refusing to use

I am not finding these links in TFA, I see a link to an issue #929 which (as mentioned in TFA) has over 350 replies, and and opinionated summary of what transpired, including some detailed description of specific posts there. However I did not find the maintainers response.

Of interest is this post here: https://github.com/RsyncProject/rsync/issues/929#issuecommen... which echos the same concern which was raised up thread, however, I failed to find the maintainers’ response.

EDIT: Found it! it is in the (untitled) discussion section (after the results).

EDIT 2 (and advice on design): The page design changes backgrounds after the results sections, which kind of conveys to the user that they have reached the end of what was is important and can just skim over the rest (usually pages have a radical change in typography like these when you’ve reached the comment section), however this is what is analogous to a discussion in a typical paper, and is arguably the most important part. I had simply assumed that you just left it at the result and skipped the discussion as a stylistic choice.

I also paraphrase Tridge himself explicitly saying that this is why commits/releases have increased:

> Essentially, this isn't a "Claude" problem, it's a "more security work" problem, something that Tridge himself confirmed in his response, describing how a flood of AI-generated CVE reports forced rapid, extensive changes to rsync's attack surface.

Good point, I assumed everyone would read till the end, that's on me. I'll give it a heading.
