My salt water pool has calcium flakes so I asked AI how to fix it. Do you agree with the recommendation?

Water Chemistry: free chlorine is 3 ppm, alkalinity 90 ppm, pH 7.8, calcium hardness 360 ppm, salt 3000 ppm, cyanuric acid 50 ppm

AI Solution based on a 10k gallon pool:

1. Drop the pH and Alkalinity

Your primary tool is muriatic acid (31.45% strength), which will lower both your pH and your total alkalinity simultaneously.

• The Dose: Add 26 fluid ounces of liquid muriatic acid.
• The Goal: This target dose will drop your pH from 7.8 down to roughly 7.3–7.4 and reduce your alkalinity closer to 80 ppm.
• How to Apply: Keep your pool pump running. Pour the acid
