Right but in this case, what might have taken me 2-3 days initially took me a day still with many many frustrating “no, I said I don’t want you to edit that file in that way” moments. So it’s faster but annoying.

To me it feels like when doing it’s like when you’re pair programming (which is quite intense anyway) with a frustrating newby who can program but misses the big picture no matter how many times you try. It works better for certain types of software - web it’s great, I have had much worse results when doing data pipeline stuff at work.
