Yea but when you really look at the numbers most people are copy pasting git commands, npm package manager commands, warning suppression syntax, etc. That's not really programming and is a symptom that the tools people are using stink or that they don't use those features very often. Not to say there aren't millions of other copy pasted but most of the remaining ones seem to be about data science, which is again a good hint that an API is complicated, and the fallout there isn't too bad because as data scientists work they check their manipulations.
