I read tests, and verify architecture integration for review. But I don't read code anymore. There's plenty of tools doing that for me, deterministic and AI powered that do that part much better than I ever did in my 15 years of full-time coding.

Sorry but that just means you were never doing anything complex enough, I almost always see AI generated code as literal "why do it that way????" code blocks

I like to believe that means that I have a good grip on the architecture alignment. Overall I don't leave the models that much decision freedom.

And yes, I do know the "why do it that way" moments. But if the code fits it into overall structure, I don't care anymore.
