IMO not using LLMs is a big plus in my book. Grammarly has been going downhill since they've been larding it with "AI features," it has become remarkably inconsistent. It will tell me to remove a comma one hour, and then tell me to add it back the next.

'imo' and 'in my book' are redundant in the same sentence. Are there rules-based techniques to catch things like that? Btw I loved the use of 'larding' outside the context of food.
