I disagree on the "can't". LLMs seem no better or worse than humans at making assumptions when given a description of needs, which shouldn't be surprising since they infer such things from examples of humans doing the same thing. In principle, there's nothing preventing a targeted programming system from asking clarifying questions.

Yes, and the early days of all tooling were crude. Don't underestimate the march of progress.
