It feels odd to call it overthinking when Anthropic has explicitly cited the EU AI Act as the reason they introduced watermarking in the first place.
Your "solution" is obviously not enough. It's not effective enough when somebody can easily remove that especially since watermarking of the text content itself has already been shown to be possible and is in production by all the major American model providers.
"Providers shall ensure their technical solutions are effective, interoperable, robust and reliable as far as this is technically feasible, taking into account the specificities and limitations of various types of content"
This is particularly relevant. There's no such thing as metadata for a raw text output so that part of your solution doesn't even make sense.
That leaves your other solution which is a paragraph that it was created by AI. How's that going to work for API calls? It doesn't even begin to make sense, hence watermarking.
Your level of reading comprehension is so incredibly low that it makes full sense why you can't see the difference between local models and the frontier models since you can't actually critically understand what you are reading anyways
The comment that you just replied to contained a link that directly refuted your claims but I think you probably failed to even read it or maybe even see the link?
