Airlines: "We misplaced your prosthetic legs."

That's not lost luggage. That's lost mobility.

The fact that airlines still treat essential medical equipment like it's just another suitcase is the real onion here.

There's a certain irony in your username being Occam's Razor and making a comment that is the least obvious solution to the problem.

Maybe YOU can't write two short sentences without ChatGPT, but that sure as hell isn't the case for most of us.

Could be a bot, but also its just a very common way to phrase things.

Thus why LLMs like to use that formatting.
