By their own admission, they are doing this for fun.
To add to that, the quote you used goes on to jokingly say:
…(so) I guess I’ll provide some logical arguments or something, whatever.
Seems to me like they weren’t trying to defend themselves. Rather they were trying to emphasize how strongly they disdain letting AI take the fun out of coding by way of sarcasm.
