It's just regarding labeling. It's unenforcable to have a project "clean" of AI.

Ok I see the intent of BDFL is different, but the linked document only mentions labeling - I can only assume the low quality etc. issues are handled as a judgement call, and in that way I consider the "No AI whatsoever" rule unenforceable.

If I use an LLM to generate code under my suprvision, review, quality check and test to be up to standard, how would it be detected I used AI if I don't label it so? They'll look for em-dashes in comments?

Rules without enforcement are just self-deception.
