Apparently it takes a massive amount of effort to change the stickies. A bit over 6 months ago I led the effort to change the sticky on initial protocol. See below. It took a poll and convincing to do this. But we got the AI removed from this as part of the starting protocol.
But you are right. Many search old posts and the misguided info is everywhere.
When I was uneducated on this stuff I pointed folks to the stickies , but no more. Mods should not leave them as a stickie. Them doing so leads user to believe they carry a degree of accuracy and importance.
There are many other awesome , accurate , fact based, myth debunking threads that should be stickies if we have to have stickies.
