Doesn't this contradict the popular wisdom that "what's good for a human engineer is good for an LLM"? e.g. documentation, separation of concerns, organized files, DRY.

I find LLMs very useful and capable, but in my experience they definitely perform worse when things are unorganized. Maintenance isn't just aesthetics, it's a direct input to correctness.

I am more worried that we are moving toward creating black boxes and this might turn software "development" into a field as confused as philosophy and dialectics.
