20x0.1 is still just 2. You don't know what calrain's productivity without AI assistance is actually like. "20x" might just be correct, but it doesn't have to be 20x what you do.

(I don't think it's 20x, it's most likely hyperbole. People aren't that unique and it's not hard to see that people who use LLMs are often lulled into thinking they're more valuable to them than they actually are, especially when they "do more", i.e. they're a magic little person program that seems to do tasks on their own as opposed to glorified auto-complete that probably by raw numbers is actually more productive.)
