Seems no, to me: a human lawyer wouldn't, for instance, make up case law that doesn't exist

You've never seen someone misremember something? The reason human lawyers don't usually get too far with made-up case law is because they have reference material and they know to go back to it. Not because their brains don't make stuff up.

The reason is I don't get to pick who the nominee is at this point.

They don't actually understand what you're asking for so they aren't going to go do the task. They'll give whatever answer seems plausible based on what everyone else in their training data has said. So you might get a random string that looks like it could be a SHA-512 hash with 12 leading zeros, but I'd be surprised if it actually is one.

Does 80 technical papers in 2.5 years seem kind of off to anyone else? That's more than a paper every 2 weeks. Is there really time for meaningful research if you're publishing that often? Is he advising a lot of students? If that's the case, is he providing the attention generally needed for each one? Is his field just super different than mine?

Regulating sunscreen as a drug seems fairly reasonable to me. Sunscreens should be required to be effective and proved to be so before being on the market. Cosmetics don't have that requirement. Maybe they should make the process easier and relax the animal testing requirement in cases where it's been used on humans for decades. But I still want corporations to jump through some hoops proving something I'm trusting my health to actually works.

Yes, but then he went on to be an adult bullying children.

I think the second sentence makes it not. If the guy didn't have a really good reason for doing so, the other people on the plane wouldn't have supported his actions. It's clickbaity. But the title to me makes it sound like the guy might be a hero.

Complement as in "Hey nice guns." Not add to them.

You don't feel so dumb when you can find a bunch of people who agree with you.

According to Mayo Clinic, penicillin and amoxicillin also can make birth control less effective. But most other sources agree with you. I wonder if it's relatively new information that those antibiotics don't affect it or what.

I'd swap the chicken for eggplant personally.

Yeah, the re-do your life idea really gets scary after you have kids. There's pretty much no way you get them back.
