If effective AI enhanced SWEs can ship features in a week, the guys who ship 1 feature a quarter stand out more?

Quality matters as well as speed though: reworking comes at a cost, so you really need to be tracking more than one metric. A lot of problems are caused by optimising for one metric above all else.
If it takes 1 quarter to develop a feature and a developer ships a feature in 1 quarter then that makes sense.
If it takes 2 weeks to ship a feature and a developer ships in 1 then yeah, I'm highly suspicious of that.
