For a one line easy fix I sort of agree, but I don’t think this is true in general. I don’t think if I write a patch with LLM help. Then put it away and recreate the exact same patch this time “without help” that I’m following the spirit of a ban.
For many maintainers I’ve talked to the point is to ban anyone who might be using LLM related tools from being a contributor.
