It is, but it would seem, alas, that people with AIs want to waste both
our time reviewing trivial (and WRONG!) changes generated by automated
tools that duplicate functionality long available in automated tools.

It would be /really awesome/ if these people with giant farms of servers
could instead turn their attention towards finding deeper functionality
bugs and design thinkos in less well tested code paths (like rt and
quota) so that Leah and I aren't the only ones...
