    Could it be some sort of meta joke where the reviewer is mocking how the paper is written by imitating its bad writing style?

      I bet it’s a form with multiple entries, each entry is not different enough of the other ones:

      How is the subject of this paper ?
      What about the style ?
      You checked to reject it, why should it be rejected ?
      What’s the overall comment ?

      Then it’s all concatenated into one blob of review.

    Funny thing: it took me a while to figure out why this was noteworthy. I think that my brain must have a pre-processor for reading language written by someone for whom English is a second language, which automatically kicked in.

    For better or for worse, these days the writer of this review would just put it through a GPT before sending it.

      Could it be sarcastic that the review is also poorly written?

      Reads like GPT, but maybe the redundant messages mirror the paper. Wonder if there is more context or it’s just a meme…

      It looks likee the writer of the response already put it through GPT. GPT 2 to be precise. :D
