Does running the command to remove the anti-goblin ask from local prompt increase performance slightly because there is less "cognitive load" to have to hold its tongue?

If you work at open ai or another llm company, I have a clear message I want you to hear:

I don't give a shit if my agents say goblins or not.

They are coding monkeys to me, researchers, etc.

I only care about their performance. perf per token / cost.

If you load their context with a bunch of style rules or safety theater shit, really - please don't - the context is for me.

Do you de-goblin before you run all the benchmarks, because that is what i am paying for, the performance as benchmarked - please don't benchmark then ship a bunch of one shot context mods to my install by default.

The article is cute and interesting but doesn't rise to the level of a thing I give a shit about for my use.
