The punctuation in this 3-name list is inconsistent (comma after the first name but not after the second). Consider either removing the first comma or using consistent list punctuation (e.g., comma-separating all names, optionally with a serial/Oxford comma before the final “and”).

How you have it is ok. But a lot of people (me included) prefer the oxford comma in many situations as it disambiguates.

Consider either removing the first comma

I think copilot is wrong with this option though - the first comma should (almost) always be there.

Yes, I in general a, b, and c is better than a, b and c.

Added it.
Thanks for the elaboration.
The German Wikipedia says it's even in English (for some) a very controversial topic.
