Did you consider that Scrum for the Enterprise (SAFe) when used correctly (only I know how, buy my book), solves all your company's problems and writes all your features for free. If your experience with my version of SAFe fails, it's a skill issue on your end. That's how you sound.
If your LLMs which you are so ardently defending, are so good, where are the results in open source?
I can tell you where, open source maintainers are drowning in slop that LLM enthusiasts are creating. Here is the creator of curl telling us what he thinks of AI contributions.https://daniel.haxx.se/blog/2025/07/14/death-by-a-thousand-s... Now I have the choice: should I believe the creator of curl, or the experience of a random LLM fanboy on the internet?
If your LLMs are so good, why does it require a rain dance and a whole pseudoscience how to configure them to be good? You know what, in the only actual study with experienced developers to date, using LLMs actually resulted in 19% decrease in productivity. https://metr.org/blog/2025-07-10-early-2025-ai-experienced-o... Have you considered that maybe if you are experiencing gains from LLMs but a study shows experienced devs don't, that maybe instead of them having a skills issue, it's you? Cause the study showed experienced devs don't benefit from LLMs. What does it make you?
I'll admit I'm probably not as good at programming as the creator of curl. I write SaaS CRUD apps as a solo dev in a small business for a living. LLMs took away the toil of writing react and I appreciate that.
