"human communication is easy, just have an AI say 'buzz off' and the conversation partner and other strangers will always respond respectfully, I don't know why so many people complain about lack of spoons or other social issues".

Thanks doctor, you just solved my anxiety.

I broadly agree that having templates does lower the amount of human effort and emotional labor required, but trust me, it's not a silver bullet, even hitting someone with a template takes spoons.

I don't really care that CVEs in theory are apparently entirely without meaning and created for nonexistent bugs, we're talking about the reality of how they're perceived and used.

Like, I'm saying "Issuing garbage such that 100 people have to read it and then figure out what to do is bad, we should instead have a higher bar for the initial issuing part so 1 or 2 people have to actually read it, and 100 people can save some time. We should call out issuing garbage as bad behavior to hopefully reduce it in the future".

You're apparently disagreeing with that and saying "But reading is easy, and the thing is meaningless anyway so this real harm that actually happens is totally fine. We should keep issuing as much garbage as we can, the numbers don't mean anything. It's better to make a pile of garbage and stress the entire system such that no one values or trusts it than to add any amount of vetting or criticism over creating garbage"

idk, I guess we're probably actually on the same page and you're just arguing for arguing's sake because you think you can be a pedant and be technically correct about CVEs. Tell me if I got a wrong read there and you have a more concrete point I'm missing?
