You make a good point, and I will clarify what I mean.
A small disclaimer, I am not a AI-booster. I think LLMs do have issues, and one should be careful with them.
I've found that there's a large group of people who dislike LLMs strongly and claim they are totally useless or even pernicious. I think this is grounded in truth -- they are trained on copyright work, they are used for spreading misinformation, they can produce sh^t code. Although some folks take a radical/extremist approach and totally dismiss them as useless -- often without actually using LLM-powered tools in any meaningful way.
They are useless for many applications, but programming is not one of them. I think a blanket ban on LLMs has to be somewhat unfounded/radical because they do have practical applications in writing code. The tab-completion models are extremely useful for example.
For this more niche project I would think LLMs might not be as useful as they are for other projects. This said, I still think there would be a variety of use-cases where they could be helpful.
