It's disingenuous because it's attacking something that the article didn't say. It didn't say "kernel devs should prompt less because it uses up water." The real argument was that …

The article isn't trying to find a particular example. It's talking about the overall stance of Linux on AI use. It argues that maintainers should consider political/moral/ethical …
