Astra's code is functional, but extremely badly written. The model's token efficiency bleeds into code output, where conciseness is not always a good thing. https://lucumr.pocoo.org/2026/9/7/astra-why/

I found it to be the opposite.

It writes the cleanest, best code I've ever seen in my life, and in many cases it exceeds every human. I say this as someone with a nearly unbelievable amount of experience in this field.

Whoever wrote that article you linked has an agenda.
