Same thing could be said with SKILL.md yet they are highly useful...

Yes you can automate via scripting, but interacting with a process using natural language because every instance could be different and not solid enough to write a spec for, is really handy.

tl;dr: there's a place for "be liberal in what you receive and conservative in what you send", but only now have LLMs provided us with a viable way to make room for "be loosey goosey with your transput"
