Patiently explaining to GPT-5.6 for the ten thousandth time that there is no need to tell the reader about all the things the package does NOT contain and that in fact saying stuff like "There is no fake debugger step" actually DECREASES trust in the report

I actually copy pasted this tweet to GPT-5.6 to explain why its clarifications are actually having the opposite effect but it declined to comment on it

My "Not involved in human trafficking" T-shirt has people asking a lot of questions already answered by my shirt.

@moyix Both Claude and GPT ARE SO BAD as writing now creative, summary or research. It feels the need to over explain EVERYTHING and lacks nuance, emotional sense and just…common sense in general
