    > The field in question is formal verification. It’s notable that those two words appear nowhere on Bend’s webpage or in its codebase. The developer has built an entire language around a field seemingly without realising that said field exists.

    I checked the developer's X account, they have written numerous posts about formal verification, so this specific claim ("without realising that said field exists") seems to be false.

      To be fair, if the two words indeed don't appear in either the webpage or the codebase, it is a bit strange. It's like implementing a whole Google alternative without ever using the words "search engine".
