> The only reason developers now feel the need to hide their LLM usage is because the LLM contributions have all been shockingly bad, so you're reversing cause and effect. If LLM contributions had been incredible, they wouldn't be frowned upon socially now

You're dismissing scale of things. OSS communities were having high-profile discussions about gatekeeping and discrimination way before LLMs were a thing, because already at that point the amount of human generated slop was becoming untenable. And yet, no one argued that this must be evidence that all human contributions are bad and humanity is a bubble waiting to pop.

> ImGui

Weird choice of an example. ImGui is common infrastructure. Who in their right mind would want to mess with that? Especially when building something to solve some end-user problem (whether N=1 or N=1 billion), ImGui is a component you include, not one you rewrite.

There's hardly any reason anyone has to contribute to that project, with or without LLMs.
