It matters when I'm contributing to their projects. In that case I'll go out of my way to be polite and learn their rules.

That's really all anyone is asking of you. It's odd that this is your position, and yet you seem to be arguing (in your other comments) in a way that seems like you think that you should be able to do whatever you want, with any project, their requirements be damned.

Because the reasons for doing it matter. The "different failure modes" argument is a fair point. Since it changes the way code is reviewed, it is polite to disclose use of LLMs.

But you and others in this thread seem hellbent on stigmatizing it to the point you take it as evidence of someone's incompetence. So I'm not at all sympathetic to your "requirements".

That's really all anyone's asking of you: enough respect for your fellow programmers that you avoid pre-judging them. If you can't do that, then what do we care about your "requirements"?
