What clear rule did she violate though? Like, Grammerly isn't an AI tool. It's a glorified spell check. And several of her previous professors had recommended it's use.

What she did "wrong" was write something that TurnItIn decided to flag as AI generated, which it's incredibly far from 100% accurate at.

Like, what should she have done differently?
