> Nobody ever disclosed Word's grammar suggestions or spelling corrections

And plenty of people have made mistakes that clearly indicate mindlessly accepting such a "correction" when it was wrong (as opposed to just making a typo, or genuinely lacking skill in English, which both generally look different); and it's historically been common to poke fun at that.

> or the fact that they used some autocomplete tool to produce code

Right, because there are really only two options: either it's effectively guaranteed to be what the user would have written by hand anyway, or it's unambiguously wrong and does the wrong thing.

Not at all comparable to LLM prose.

> and if they want to put crappy writing out there with their name on it, that's on them.

The problem is that people who don't care (and quite possibly have no real sense for crappy writing) are vastly more enabled by the technology than people who do.
