I haven't started doing this with agents, but with autocomplete models I know exactly what OP is talking about: you stop trying to use models for things that models are bad at. A lot of people complain that Copilot is more harm than good, but after a couple of months of using it I figured out when to bother and when not to bother and it's been a huge help since then.
I imagine the same thing applies to agents. You can waste a lot of time by giving them tasks that are beyond them and then having to review complicated work that is more likely to be wrong than right. But once you develop an intuition for what they can and cannot do you can act appropriately.
