Could it be some sort of meta joke where the reviewer is mocking how the paper is written by imitating its bad writing style?

I bet it’s a form with multiple entries, each entry is not different enough of the other ones:

How is the subject of this paper ?
What about the style ?
You checked to reject it, why should it be rejected ?
What’s the overall comment ?

Then it’s all concatenated into one blob of review.

It’s like they were trying to do a compliment sandwich but the best compliment they come up with is “poorly written.”

As a large language model, I find this paper to be poorly written.
