Every individual programmer having locally-implemented idiosyncratic versions of sed and awk with imperfect reconstruction between sessions sounds like a regression to me

Why would it recreate sed and awk? The screenshot from the repo even shows it using sed.
I already treat awk syntax as something idiocratic, so not much would change for me.
But -- I think, only because of the friction of having to read and parse what they did, which, to me could greatly be alleviated by AI itself.
Put differently -- for those who'd like to share, yes, give me your locally implemented idosyncraticness with a little AI to help explain to me what's going on, and I feel like that's a sweet spot between "AI do the thing" and "give me raw code"
