I'm not convinced you're right, but in the event, I wouldn't be sad about it, and I daresay Dr. Knuth would be delighted, rather than sad.

The Tex policy is that all bugs are to be fixed while Donald Knuth lives, after which the version becomes π and "all bugs are declared features".

Imagine if all the bugs just got fixed instead, and it was due to artificial intelligence! No, I don't think he'd mind at all. https://www-cs-faculty.stanford.edu/~knuth/papers/claude-cyc...
