Glad to see this published, I think it will be a useful reference for #RStats package maintainers. Thanks to @rsbivand for his work on an initial draft and to @Lluis_Revilla for collaborating on many updates to get this over the line!

Oh, great. TIL #RStats sprintf("%03s", x) differ on macOS and Linux; Linux: > sprintf("x=%02s", c("1", "2", "a")) [1] "x= 1" "x= 2" "x= a" macOS: > sprintf("x=%02s", c("1", "2", "a")) [1] "x=01" "x=02" "x=0a" Personally, I'd argue padding strings with zeros should not be an error. Oh well...

It is not my experience that AI doesn't know how to program in R (in the last six months with frontier models, specifically). The terseness and lack of state in R's statistical modeling machinery offers far fewer "agent degrees of freedom" which I've found means they are less likely to wander astray

I'll be stalking {stbl} a bit on CRAN and github, but please let me know if you use {stbl}, and if you find anything that could work more smoothly. And I guess it'd probably also be great to hear if you use it painlessly! #RStats #PositConf2026
