Yeah AI is the relevant stand in but ultimately this is about one group of people being lazy and trying to shift more work onto another group of people. It just so happens that they are using AI to do it

I don't think it "just so happens". AI enables that behavior at great scale and arguably even encourages it.

You can disagree with their approach, but I don't think it's fair to call the DFSG team, which is comprised of unpaid volunteers, "lazy". They have to vet every brand-new package that enters Debian, and their queue has an infamous history of being a bottleneck in the Debian project. Their time is certainly more valuable than the the time of the individuals uploading new packages.

I understand your confusion, but here's the truth of the matter: None of this has to be done. If anyone on the DFSG team does not want to do this work the answer is simple: Just don't do it.
