I care more about hiding AI related articles than I do about AI-authored content in articles. Feels like most of the content on HN is now AI related and it’s just exhausting. Anyone have a way they’re correcting this balance of content, like a browser extension maybe?

One obvious answer is that people probably don’t want to write a whole parser and wire up new steps in their build pipeline just to do something simple like get the name of enum cases as a string.

Without taking a stance on whether in-language meta programming facilities are good or bad, it’s not hard to find examples of cases where people find it useful to have them.

You get to choose between UB, a crash, or handling the error — same as most other languages.

It’s not a reliability issue of the language if as an author of software you choose to crash in your failure handling cases. Claiming otherwise is either disingenuous or a failure to understand what actually happened.
