Thanks, I'll toss this version form PW, please let us know if it's good (enough) and we should pull as is after all. In general, I'd of course like to allow more use of the meta sponsored models but my time is limited, and to some extent so are the funds (to some extent because I suspect the volume is negligible compared to netdev). At the same time I worry that *shikos are making it easier for our maintainers to ignore the fundamental changes which AI brings to SW engineering. IOW I'd like to encourage more local use and experimentation. Sorry for not answering your actual questions. TBH I don't think we have any real answers for most of them.
