That’s not slop. That’s all Haskell written by people for various reasons. Bad code, maybe. But humans writing bad code is interesting and even valuable due to the externalities.
Slop (AI or human) is output for output’s sake, usually with an incentive to use that cheap output for secondary benefits.
