Some argue, LoC is irrelevant as a quality/complexity metric as (in this new software product development lifecycle) implementation + testing + maintainance is wholly overseen by agents.

It has never been possible to code & deploy software with all but specs. Whatever software Garry is building are products he couldn't otherwise. LoC, in that context, serves as a reminder of the capabilities of the agents to power/slog through reqs/specs (quite incredibly so).

Besides, critical human review can always be fed back as instructions to agents.
