That doesn't make any sense.
Yegge named it Gas Town as in "refinery" because the main job for the human at this stage is reviewing the generated code and merging. "
The whole point of the project is to be in control. Yegge even says the programmers who can read/review a lot of code fast are the new 10x (paraphrasing).
"I’ve never seen the code, and I never care to, which might give you pause"

Oof, he changed that. I stand corrected.
Yeah and its not a big focus of the posts which is interesting. I'd have thought he'd spend a lot more time talking about the workflow he's using, the specs/feature definitions he's writing, and so on.
