This has always been true, but it begs repeating:

> **Every docstring should provide additional information**

> **which is not obvious from the thing's name** and its type information.
{.rule}

And the corollary:

> **If an LLM could generate the same docstring for you**,
> based on the name and type information alone,
> **then the docstring is not adding any value**.
{.rule}

This applies independent of whether it was actually written by a LLM,
or whether you yourself just mindlessly filled in the blanks without thinking.

Writing a docstring is supposed to make you think.
