Because the entire README doesn't even mention it, and it is an important factor in deciding whether it is ready for production use.

I, for one, am definitely not going to use this project for anything serious unless I have thoroughly reviewed the code myself. Prototyping is fine.

Should the README mention if a project was agile? Or if Bill Joy wrote some of the code? Or if they used VS Code?

Dude, you know you are trolling.

There is a material difference between whether you used VSCode or vim to write the code, and if you personally wrote or reviewed any code at all.

I'm not really trolling. I'm trying to push people to consider that the world is already in a state where "I used AI" is neither binary nor dispositive. I think we're used to a 2023 to mid-2025 framing where outside of some narrow, highly structured cases, the code is garbage.

If that's still true as a binary now, it won't be for long. As the robot likes to say, some of these changes are "in flight".
