Anyone else instantly turned away by the LLM emoji bullet points?

This project could be the work of an enthusiastic developer with a deep understanding/love of the 80286 or LLM slop based on regurgitated code stolen from years of hard work by dedicated retro emulator developers. Unfair or not, emoji bullet points do not give confidence it's the first.

Looking at the commits, for me it seems to be LLM generated. Claude is even mentioned in one of them [0].

Code is also LLMed + no screenshots, no videos, no software compatibility listed, no github issues/error reports and nobody on the googlable internet ever ran this. No idea whats going on.
