Yes I liked the last example. As I stated, this discussion helped me
understand the issues I had with what you wanted to add. I wanted this
document to be just as applicable to checkpatch and sed scripts as it is to
LLMs. My fear was it was becoming too focused on AI where those that are
submitting checkpatch and coccinelle scripts will think this doesn't apply
to them.
