This reply genuinely reads like AI and I don't mean to insult you. Perhaps large language models have been trained too much on your books. Your first 2 to 3ish paragraph (explanation and rephrasing) is very characteristic of an AI when they're pressed (e.g. on why they recently hallucinated).
I think it's kind of counterproductive to call out "this comment sounds like AI."
If you're right and it is AI, the comment only points out what many of us can already see. If you're wrong and it isn't AI, then the commenter you're responding to can either argue with you about how it's not AI or just say nothing because there's nothing of substance to say.
There's a dark future timeline where snark becomes the new "don't use any em-dashes" that people inject even more of to intentionally look human, since empathy and patience read as..robotic.
