Maybe I'm being a dumbass and missing the joke, but wouldn't it be way easier to pull the lists from a separate file or a database instead of hard coding them in...?

That's basically what their evil.py file is. So they're essential complaining that co-pilot forced them to have follow a good practice.

Theyโ€™re complaining that if there is a single word in an entire file that Copilot considers โ€œbadโ€, it will not work at all in that file.
