I agree, but I also think that giving the LLM free rein is also extremely unpleasant and difficult. And you still need to review the resulting code.

I don't think there's anything difficult or unpleasant about the process of letting the LLM run free, that's the whole point, it's nearly frictionless. Which includes not reviewing the code carefully. You say "need" but you mean "ought".

    Friction is not the only source of displeasure. I've tried out vibe-coding for something non-trivial; I found it deeply unpleasant.
