I think github is at a point that its too hard to ignore just like google is even though we might not like what they are doing now but we were the one made them this big.
I won't say He should be working on it no matter what but I believe its a very good project and I think as always community forks will be the only option when it won't work in future
This is something these tech giants ignore intentionally. Infact many people don't even know about how they train their model by scraping data for free & when it comes to their code being open source, you see Takedowns lol. Interestingly, Anthropic made a bigger Contribution to open source itself.
Yes lately i've also noticed the same pattern that Model try to provide over explaination to even simple stuff & that points to its system prompt or something internal instructions to waste tokens to hit limits
