But if you're importing in a library that might have 100,000 LoC just so that you can say you "wrote X in 12 LoC" ... is that really a far representation?

Yes, that's my point. What these articles do is effectively to "hijack" that metric.

This article is more honest, though. It only imports PyTorch and that is already mentioned in the title.
