I think these guideline are built into the llms. After all with llms, any decision you don't take will be taken for you. For a so called slop site (Simon's words, not mine :P) I don't think they specified a style so the llm just decided the default it knows. One day I will run experiments (when I can afford it) trying to identify the "taste" of different llms.
nit, the LHS menu does not scroll until I get the the very bottom of the main content, it should scroll independently so I can see the "ToC" in full without having to view the page in full
Thanks Simon! Scroll better now, but something still feels off about the page (to me), perhaps I'm not used to such a large "navbar" area. The "breadcrumb" feels like "false advertising" to me too :]

Thanks, I passed that on to ChatGPT Work, should be fixed now (I'm on mobile so haven't tried it on desktop yet.)
