Possibly related to https://simonwillison.net/2026/Apr/30/zig-anti-ai/ where the Bun team wanted to upstream work to Zig that was rejected by a blanket anti-LLM contribution policy.

Code origin was not even a factor https://ziggit.dev/t/bun-s-zig-fork-got-4x-faster-compilatio...
That seems totally reasonable but I wonder if there was some head butting in non-public channels given Bun is one of the biggest players in Zig and planned to push through a change like that on their own.
Even if there was anything in private channels, the reasons stated in that forum post are alone more than enough to reject Bun's Zig changes.
