What happened?

Sites that use the popular YOAST plugin to generate the llms.txt are failing the new /llms.txt as they out a file starting with a Byte order mark.

I guess it could be debated that they shouldn't start that way, but afaik there is nothing in the proposal either way as to if this should be failing or not.

What did you expect?

the # title that is there, after the BOM to be detected/
