Rereading it, there is a good chance I’m the asshole here, but the basic reasons were a paragraph, followed by bullet points, followed by a paragraph. That’s a very common format for ChatGTP. As well, the use of emdashes in general, specifically where most people would use a comma. What really leads me to think I might be the asshole here is his use of “But” to start a sentence. It’s pretty common in informal writing, but really uncommon in the type of formal writing that ChatGPT loves to produce.
I hate this push against using decent grammar and formatting. Knowing how to use emdash dash or a semicolon or bullet points doesn’t make you a bot.
We might be the minority, but there are still tons of us out there who have always written this way. How do you think the LLMs got it to begin with? It’s mirroring us, not the other way around.

Looks like typed as hyphens, and LLMs tend to produce emdashes.
I think the intro/bullet point/conclusion format is pretty common among humans.
