Contrary to what most devs belief: Most code is not shipped to hundreds of millions of users and passing the test and actually implementing a feature is worth more that drowning in backlog.

The video is spot on for codebases of products that are critical systems: payment, erp etc -> single source of truth.

Simple Crud apps/ Frontends for ecom that abstracted away the critical functionality to backend APIs (ERP, shop system, payment etc) benefit from vibe slop vs no shipping cadence

You're producing technical debt. At some point you will invest more time fixing the vibe slop than it would have cost you to do the work yourself in the first place. A lot of vibe-coding just feels like shifting responsibility and resources from "development" to "incident response".
