Great point. What I’m recognizing in that PR thread is that the bot is trying to mimic something that’s become quite widespread just recently - ostensibly humans leveraging LLMs to create PRs in important repos where they asserted exaggerated deficiencies and attributed the “discovery” and the “fix” to themselves.

It was discussed on HN a couple months ago. That one guy then went on Twitter to boast about his “high-impact PR”.

Now that impact farming approach has been mimicked / automated.
