I can't believe that they criticized the vendor api for not having confirmation.

It's a freaking API!!! It's designed for automation, not direct human (or LLM!) use. If you added confirmation then devs would have to code automatic acceptance, which defeats the purpose.

It doesn't make a bit of sense. Someone is passing the buck.

Everything is always somebody else's fault.
