Not a slam dunk, just a factual statement
At the end of the day, it's true? There are times where that suffices, and times where it doesn't.
It might be true, but it is extremely reductive and used pejoratively.

If you’re edgy cynic and treat anything this way, that’s fine. But if you’re singling out LLMs just because you don’t like them, then you’re a hypocrite.
If you think calling a calculator a calculator is offensive to the point of calling someone a cynic and hypocrite you might be a bit too invested
