Not random. Her GitHub username is “type”, so “@type” tags her.

That’s only useful in commit messages, issue discussions and stuff like that. Why would the devs even make that execute in source files, where it’s all but guaranteed to be a false match??

That’s “automatically turning domain names into http hyperlinks” but even worse.
