That's not what the GP mean. Just because a community doesn't disallow something doesn't mean it's the right thing to do.

It's absurd to me that people should commit code they don't understand. That is the problem. Just because you are allowed to commit AI-generated/assisted code does not mean that you should commit code that you don't understand.
The overhead to others of committing code that you don't understand then ask someone to review is a lot higher than asking someone for directions first so you can understand the problem and code you write.

That's just not the point.
