Agreed, even with trivial JS constructs parts 1 and 2 can be solved (including parsing) in 58 chars (and only O(n), not O(n*w) like Copilot's solution). The copilot prompt alone for the just the logic part of part one was 98 chars.
Surprise, programming languages are more efficient at encoding logic than English.
