Your story highlights the clash of two mindsets regarding open source development. On one side there are artisans who treat programming as a craft and care about every line of code. On the other side, vibe-coders who might not even seen the code LLMs have generated and don't care about it as long as the program works.

And of course there is everything in between.

Some context: it is a tightly knit community, where I interact with the contributors often in a conversational manner.

I know their intent is to push the project forward and well-meaning, I don't care about whether they are vibe-coding. I care about knowing they are vibe-coding so I can assist them to vibe-code in a way they can actually achieve their goal, or help them realize early that they lack the capacity to contribute (not of their own fault necessarily, maybe they just require orientation on how to reason about problems and solutions or their use of the tools).
