Your language is not acceptable here.
If you're not already shadow-banned I suspect that's the way you're heading.

Past that, I'm not familiar with Old English enough to understand and follow the text.

To me this made it clear that the German Nation has been clearly defined over the last thousand years and just how similar the people who wrote and enjoyed that work are to the native Germans right now.

If you mean "the usage of that voice implies the article itself is written by LLMs" then I strongly disagree. I'd eat my shoe if an article written this well were made by today's LLMs. Doubly so for an article from a linguistics PhD who was written similar content prior to LLMs.
