Thank you for the detailed feedback! I’ve addressed all the issues:
Thank you for the feedback! I agree that following the Vim 8+ naming convention makes sense.
Thank you for the feedback on naming!
Thanks for the suggestion! After thinking about this more, I believe repeat_set() / repeat_get() is the right choice:
Thank you for the feedback. A brief clarification.


I see less random screeching here and more shock. Vim is a long lived, well trusted piece of software, and there’s the shock of “they’re using AI assistance” but more so “What the fuck is that incomprehensible mess and why was it not proofread.”
That’s the most damning part for me. I’d prefer zero AI usage, but I can tolerate clearly labeled usage reviewed by people who know what the fuck they’re doing.
That wack ass “thank you” block in the OP demonstrates that nobody is proofreading, and that’s absolutely braindead. AI isn’t a solution for lack of care.
More directly, if you’re so convinced that we’re all in the wrong, why are you participating here? Just block the comm.
This is actually a reasonable take for this instance.
