This is built for ML researchers out of an academic lab. There's a ton of functionality in the library (beyond RLHF and alignment) that ML researchers do every day to write papers and run experiments that the library helps abstract and make repeatable and usable.

Unless your research hypothesis is specifically around improving or changing RLHF, it's unlikely you should be implementing it from scratch. Abstractions are useful for a reason. The library is quite configurable to let you tune any knobs you would want.
