SkyDemon doesn't compute forecasts or conjure them out of METAR or TAF data. We use an established forecast model (the Global Forecast System). It has been used for aviation purposes since its inception, indeed I believe that was one of the reasons it was started. It's what is used by aviation across the globe as a source of the most reliable predictions of wind vectors aloft.
If there were a lot of people who didn't want SkyDemon to automatically use these wind forecasts, we'd probably have an option to turn them off.
