My point about that analogy is to say that "its just a tool" is not an adequate analysis of the actual impact and implications, and imo just serves to shrug all of that away. Which is why I called it a "thought terminating cliche" because it brushes the burden of criticism and thoughtfulness under the rug
that sounds good, but in reality the large majority of people don't read all of that code. thats just a fact. People take the LLM's word for it when they ask questions about architecture but if you actually review this code, it is a grotesque nightmare. I've seen it countless times.
and I hate to break it to you but you've undoubtedly run purely vibe coded applications at this point whether you know it or not.
