I don't understand this critique. Carlini did use Claude Code directly. Claude Code used the Claude Opus 4.6 model, but I don't know why you'd consider it inaccurate to say Claude Code found it.
GPT 5.4 might be capable of finding it as well, but the article never made any claims about whether non-Anthropic models could find it.
If I wrote about achieving 10k QPS with a Go server, is the article misleading unless I enumerate every other technology that could have achieved the same thing?
And surely that would be relevant if they were using a different harness.
