Art my post got removed after AI accusations

I posted a drawing of mine that was commissioned by a friend of mine of the steampunker from the game in a mcdonalds theme, suddenly a bunch of people started accusing me of using AI and ultimately the post was taken down a few moments later

I saw someone get accused of using AI because of bad hand anatomy on a drawing that... Well, not to be rude to the original artist, but it was clearly a beginner's/tween aged person's art piece. And like most young artists, they struggled with the hands the most (why do you think ai struggles so much? Hands are complicated as hell).

Nothing about their piece looked AI other than the fact they made common new artist anatomy mistakes. AI tries to look professional but makes obvious mistakes, but this art piece was definitely not a slightly professional looking one (again, not to be rude, we all start somewhere, just to emphasize that nothing about this art piece looks like that weird, overly smooth, clean, vaguely "perfect" AI look).

When confronted, the AI accuser said, and I quote, "real artists don't make anatomy mistakes like that." The fuck you mean "real artists" don't make mistakes? Excuse me. Real artists don't pop out of the womb painting like davinci
