        Everyone’s got such a huge hate boner for this bot, but I have no idea why.

        In this case, by saying it doesn’t have info on the source it clues user into the fact that it’s not a very large or popular source, which is an extra bit of data readers can take with them even if they don’t do any more research beyond that.

        If it was my bot, I would probably program it to do that, rather than do nothing in cases like this.
