Why would that necessarily happen? With an LLM you have perfect knowledge of the code. At any time you can understand any part of your code by simply asking the LLM to explain it. It is one of the super powers of the tools. They also accelerate debugging by allowing you to have comprehensive logging. With that logging the LLM can track down the source of problems. You should try it.

The LLM will give you an explanation but it may not be accurate. LLMs are less reliable at remembering what they did or why than human programmers (who are hardly 100% reliable).
