It's an intentional (hopefully) tradeoff between development speed and deep understanding. By hiring someone or using an agent, you are getting increased speed for decreased understanding. Part of choosing whether or not to use an agent should include an analysis of how much benefit you get from a deep understanding of the subsystem you're currently working on. If it's something that can afford defects, you bet I'll get an agent to do a quick-n-dirty job.
