Vim's lead maintainer has fully lost his goddamn mind

The devs do have my sympathy, they dedicate their time and energy for these projects and start burning out. The solution obviously shouldn’t be drowning it on slop. They should be just slowing down. Vim has been an excellent and functional tool for many years now, it doesn’t need more speed. There are better ways to use LLMs as a productivity tool.
What I’m wondering is, why does Vim need new features in the core repo at all?
It’s finished software at this point.
The dev should just do security upgrades and let extensions developed by other people handle additional functionality.
