I didn't doubt that you are human but I want to encourage people to keep mails succinct and to the point as mailing lists act as multipliers: One person writes a message for hundreds or thousands to spend time reading. We've seen GitHub being overwhelmed by the sheer amount of PRs during the last months, and AI making it easier to generate those is IMHO a big part of the reason for this. I Want to avoid internals being overwhelmed by long back and forth threads due to the ease of writing replies using AI. Apologies if you took my email personal, this thread was not meant to be about any specific email but about a technology and how we handle it to keep internals working. > If my previous emails sounded overly formal, it was purely out of deep respect for the experts > on this list.

Yes, please use direct language, no extra politeness needed for technical discussions like this, certainly not for me ;-) Additionally it saves time for readers if you strip down the quoted text to the relevant parts.
