hey if the reviewers don't read the paper that's on them.

often this stuff is added as white text (as in, blends with backround), and also possibly placed behind another container, such that manual selection is hard/not possible. So even if someone reads the paper, they will not read this.

Exactly. This will not have an effect on a regular reviewer who plays by the rules. But if they try to let an LLM do their reviewing job, it is fair to prevent negative consequences for your paper in this way.
