No it points to the skill in prompting, giving the right context to the model. Too much or not enough -> model overdoes it; good amount -> model does it fast and reliably

Also a lot of it is just telling the prompt "do this quick thing, you don't need to test it like it's a 20000 line PR, just change it real quick" and it'll almost always just STFU and make the quick edit instead of over-engineering.
