I uncharitably snarked that AI lets the 0.05X programmers become 0.2X ones, but reading this stuff makes me feel like I was too charitable.

I've never had problems with any of those things after I learned what a code editor was.

Yep, it may be an issue in notepad, which does not have helper like syntax highlighting, auto indent, and line numbers. But I started with IDLE which has all those things. So my next editor was notepad++ and codeblock.
