Did you skip the "rigorously verify the LLM code" part of my comment on purpose, just to show contempt?

I think the point is you could just.... write the code yourself.

And I do, most of the time. Sometimes the code to be written is quite verbose and I am on a tighter deadline. And it still takes less time and effort to vet the LLM's code. Otherwise yeah.
