I strongly feel that this is a terrible metric for comments on the internet.
First, the person you’re replying to has nothing to gain and a lot to lose by saying "yes".
Second, it invites silly corner case nitpicking. Their comment is written in reasonable plain English for other users reading plain English. It’s not a legal contract, and so leaves lots of loopholes. Sure, you could create a likely non-transformative LLM by training it on nothing but the text of Harry Potter with fitness measured by how accurately it exactly reproduces the complete text of Harry Potter, but that’s not what reasonable people are doing with LLMs.
