This made sense when it was added, but my experience is that current LLM models do understand QL, so the only effect of this is that very aligned models (i.e. they follow orders closely) refuse to edit QL, which is not helpful when that is what we are asking them to do.

Agreed, my experience is also that the current LLMs has produced working QL code without issues.
