Some people read Anthropic's announcement and understood it to say "Claude designed this software".
Others read it and interpreted it as "a team of seven engineers designed this software and used a Claude to build it".
The former group seem a whole lot more outraged by this situation than the latter. Which interpretation did you take from Anthropic's post?

Neither. Anthropic originally claimed the same thing that you originally did in this thread; that this was a from-scratch implementation, and that the use of LLM-based tools was the primary reason they could go from zero to a nontrivial version control system in ~five months.
Please stop going to bat for these folks.
