So you received feedback from Greg, but tried on different part, hoping
this time it will get accepted?

This looks similar to you previous approaches, e.g. for DT bindings,
where you received comments and repeated the same thing immediately.
Three or four time.

I suggest spend some time to actually read the archives when people
point it.

One was pure AI slop, so what did you expect exactly? In all channels,
fediverse, some technological news, open source projects complain about
sent slop, they reject it and treat it as one of biggest time wasting
thing contributor could do. It is not like we hide it, right? Actually
opposite, everywhere we scream - don't send vibe coded stuff. And for
learning or beginning this is even unacceptable waste of your time,
because you will learn nothing. I was raising it for GSoC for example
more than once and it is documented in their rules.

One idea would be to read more before you actually contribute.
