That's some weird gatekeeping. Why stop there? Whoever is using a linter is obviously too stupid to write clean code right off the bat. Syntax highlighting is for noobs.

I full-heartedly dislike people that think they need to define some arcane rules how a task is achieved instead of just looking at the output.

Accept that you probably already have merged code that was generated by AI and it's totally fine as long as tests are passing and it fits the architecture.

You're supposed to gatekeep code. There is nothing wrong with gatekeeping things that aren't hobbies.

If someone can't explain every change they're making and why they chose to do it that way they're getting denied. The bar is low.
