JFYI, I am suprised how good was the review made by the Sashiko AI, see
https://sashiko.dev/#/patchset/20260313-lp-tests-old-fixes-v1-0-71ac6dfb3253%40suse.com

It pointed out many problems mentioned in the human review.
IMHO, it was also able to explain them very well.

Well, it missed some higher level views.
