The sentence

What does this have to do with Dunning-Kruger?

The copy-paster couldn't recognize that using that line would show that he's using an LLM...

That's an example of incompetence, not Dunning-Kruger.

I just assume when I read someone post Dunning-Kruger like this they are trying to make an ironic joke.

Dunning-Kruger must include some indicator the subject thinks they're more intelligent/competent than they are. All I see here is proof of subject being a dumbass, maybe he/she is aware of it.
