I guess the point is that there is no need for humans to read the code.

How often do you read assembly to check what your compiler is doing?

There is a niche of people doing it when they have special constraints, but that's a tiny niche.

The difference is my compiler is more-or-less deterministic, and tends to do exactly what the specification provided to it (the source code) says. LLMs do not currently fulfil either of those criteria
