I’m not sure why you’re being so hostile, but you're fundamentally confusing a codebase's hand-written LoC with Git commit additions.

Nobody is saying someone authored 11M lines. Commit fa3e8525 was a workspace reconciliation - importing external repository code, dependencies, and assets into the public repo for the first time, so exactly the type of thing I was talking about. Git counts all imported lines as additions.

Before asking others to "stay in their lane", maybe make sure you understand how Git history handles repository imports and dependency tracking. Have a good day.
