I find that very hard to believe, if you're truly just talking about typing. If this is true you're using an awful language server / linter / whatever.

Coding style is also a deterministic process, for which every widely used language has a linter or formatter or whatever. Also no LLMs needed.

As a professional software developer of 8 years, I honestly have no idea what you're talking about

    This is Lua code. LuaLS is basically the language server available.

    And sorry, I should have said "dynamically typed". But, weak tables.

    There's a lot of things that don't get caught, such as concatenating a boolean which causes a lua error in our environment. LuaLS won't catch that.

    Formatting isn't a problem for us, but it does affect the kernel. But, the VSCode one we use does a lot of weird things honestly.
