Thank you for bringing this nuanced view.
I also am not sure why so many people are vehemently against this. I would bet that at least 90% of researchers would agree that the writing up is definitely not the part of the work they prefer (to stay polite). As you mentioned, work is usually relegated to students, and those students already had access to LLMs if they wanted to generate the work.
In my opinion, most of those tools become problematic when people use them without caution. Unfortunately, even in sciences, people are not as careful and pragmatic as we would like to imagine they are and a lot of people are cutting corners, especially in those "lesser" areas like writing and presenting your work.
Overall, I think this has the potential to reshape the publication system, which is long overdue.
