I'm not an expert on LLMs by any means, but I suspect the syntatic and
semantic reconstruction of human language is fairly flexible because the
grammar is fairly flexible. Obviously this is not the case for a computer 
language which needs to be absolutely bang on syntatically and with everything 
in the correct order and with certain things that must be done or it won't work.

Umm, I'm pretty sure hashtags have zero effect on usenet.
