Let's just say they are pretending to be helpful, how about that?

> "Peer review"

no unless your "peers" are bots who regurgitate LLM slop.

You think they lied about reproducing the issue? It’s useful to know if a bug can be reproduced.

We cannot know for sure but I think it's reasonably likely (say 50/50). Regurgitating an LLM for 90% of your comment does not inspire trust.

Yes, of course I think they lied, because a trustworthy person would never consider 0-effort regurgitated LLM boilerplate as a useful contribution to an issue thread. It's that simple.

It's performative garbage: authority roleplay edition.

Let me slop an affirmative comment on this HIGH TRAFFIC issue so I get ENGAGEMENT on it and EYEBALLS on my vibed GitHub PROFILE and get STARS on my repos.

It's not a peer review it's just AI slop. I do agree they don't seem to be intentionally posing as an MS employee.
