I'm reminded of my first tech job about 25 years that had some not very technical manager who had a technical toady write up a script to check lines of code added as a productivity measure. I was in big trouble because it didn't account for lines removed or modified, only new lines added. The copy paste guy was praised of course for how productive he was for.

Funny how AI is continuing the same story of non/semi technical busy bodies with their dumb bullshit.
