I absolutely agree with you. In the right hands, LLM is a teaching tool, and the calls to resist it are as dumbfounded as the calls to resist the chalkboard would be.
One of my favourite uses of LLM is the reverse-dictionary, for example:
Give me one Saxon and one Romance word meaning "to write".
Saxon (Germanic origin): scratch — Old English scrætan, linked to marking or incising.
Romance (Latin origin): inscribe — from Latin inscribere, "to write on/in."

Genius!
