I know you’re playing the straight man to a joke, but actually you can apply a linter, then tell GitHub to ignore the implied ownership history for the purposes of blame from that reclining pr. All such prs are massive and yet by virtue of the replayability of the linter it’s also very easy to ensure errors didn’t slip in when reviewing.

Ah yes, that old chestnut. ‘Yeah sure this other guy would probably genocide harder but he didn’t (because he wasn’t president) so we should suppress the vote for the old genocide dude to help the other old genocide dude who also hates that autonomy (bodily, electoral, legal) exists at all’. Very sensible, enlightened centrist, let’s gooooo.
