Are you sure OP belongs in the second group? He explicitly said he doesn't read all the code generated by his AI:

It might surprise you to know that most (senior) engineers who review don't read every line of code. They have visual pattern-matching from years of experience and depend on that. A good question is, is that enough? I don't know, but the point is that this is already a established practice.
Also, I will not doubt OP's experience. He has published a good set of Emacs packages that are very capable for the niches they occupy. Certain packages are even foundational dependencies in the Emacs ecosystem.
If OP "vibecoded" a critical package, I'm sure he would take it upon himself to ensure it high quality.
