You don't really need a maintainer when codex or claude code can set it up for you; thats how I got Trellis2 working on windows and tiny VRAM despite Microsoft recommending you have 24GB VRAM and Linux. Models are pretty disposable now.

So, instead of having one or two maintained projects that work super well, now we have hundreds or thousands of people half-assing it locally each time they need it? Doesn't sound efficient.

		It might make sense to do this if there literally isn't an existing solution out there, but I think most would find that it's better to use an existing solution than to recreate the wheel every time there's a need. It's just less effort/time/money.

		I have the same objection to forking open source projects; changes should be upstreamed when possible.

This is complete dependency on LLM tools all the way from development to usage, and is risky as well as prone to failure

		Local inference without access to internet and tools is pretty safe, worst you get is a slop output, best case it solves your prompt.
