I assume you're new to this process so I'll explain: When someone submits bug
reports to your project that help fix problems, the polite thing to do is to
say "thanks for the time you've taken to help improve the project", not
"FOAD", which tends to discourage future contributions.
For the record, if anyone wants to send me a bug report for my code I'll
accept it whether you found it yourself, used an AI, or it came to you in a
weird dream you had after a dodgy vindaloo.
