There's a lot of discussion about the ethics of AI disclosure going on here, but this maintainer is writing this from a place I recognize - community-driven, participatory development by people who enjoy programming, talking about it, and teaching each other how to do it.
Not every software project needs to attempt to maximize productivity. Not every software project is a business. Some are just created by people who enjoy programming. By hand. It's OK to set that as a culture. I guess I get it.
I don't mind AI tools, I use them judiciously, but sometimes I just want to do some coding - for me it's a genuinely relaxing and mentally satisfying activity to write some good code -, and I'm happy there's still others around me who do as well. Gardening context prompts and what not just isn't nearly as fun as just doing it, and not every project has to be economical. This one is yet another terminal emulator; it's not going to be the next unicorn. But I bet it's fun to hack on.
