Because lying about your usage of AI is a good way to get completely kicked out of the open source community once caught. That's like asking 'why should you bother with anti-cheating measures for speedruns'. Why should we have any guidelines or regulations if people are going to bypass them? The answer I hope should be very obvious.

> high quality PRs with AI will get the "AI slop" label. At this point, why even disclose if the AI-assisted high-quality PR is indistinguishable from having been manually written (which it should be)? No point.

Then obviously the repository in question doesn't want people using AI and you should go elsewhere. They're not even against LLM tooling for this repo but people are freaking out because how dare you ask me to disclose what tools I'm using.
