Complete horseshit on many levels, but presumably a legally valid investigation.

But you're right, the full range of biological possibilities is very fuzzy . SRY itself a just a regulatory switch that other sex-linked traits are conditionally dependent on. If the switch gets broken, you develop as female. If genes that support the switch break, you might develop as female. If a sex-linked trait downstream from SRY mutates, then pretty much anything can happen. And other species do sex determination completely differently. Hell, a lot of bacterial sex basically involves throwing pseudo-viruses at each other.

In that context, I'd guess that the 300 CPM figure is just a signpost that says "we measured the worker to make sure that he was safe to release to a hospital."

The creolization is why English has a relatively simple grammar, and all the word sources is why we have like 16-20 vowel sounds trying to cram into latin characters.

It's a bit of a problem that the same character is both a mark of LLMs and skilled writing.

They're frequently used in skilled and professional grade writing.

However, em dashes are a different case. The main reason why it's desirable to use em dashes (beside convention) is for clarity of purpose. The hyphen is already a very overloaded character; they're extensively used to denote ranges and link compound words. Importantly, both of those usages do not correspond to pauses in spoken language. If you're voicing a hyphen you're supposed to barrel on through it. An em dash is much closer to a parenthesis, comma, or semicolon. It's a meaningful break in the sentence, in the way that a hyphen isn't.

Now, if it were up to me I'd choose a different character to replace em dashes (maybe underscores), but that's a separate argument.

But, no, now it's a problem because the majority of people's experience with writing is graded essays. And because LLMs emulate professionals, it's now a red flag if students write too much like professionals. What a joke.

I wonder if there are any disorders related to disregulation in the process.

However, in my experience core community members will read things like this CoC, at least partially. They also be fairly involved with discussions about it, which go a long way to shape a community.
