That’s also because of how Claude Code was written. It doesn’t have to be that way per se.

It's pretty easy to get determinism with a simple harness for a well-defined set of tasks with the recent models that are post-trained for tool use. CC probably gets some bloat because it tries to do a LOT more; and some bloat because it's grown organically.

Do you have a source? Claude Code is the only genetic system that seems to really work well enough to be useful, and it’s equipped with an absolutely absurd amount of testing and redundancy to make it useful.

Hypothesis: it's a sprawling, labyrinthine mess because it was grown at high speed using Claude Code.

There’s a lot of redundancy, because there has to be to make the system useful. It’s a hacked together mess.
