You know, we used to look down on engineers who didn't realize there's more to software than the raw lines of code.

You're free to look down on whoever you want. I'm free to tell you I couldn't care less, and that both replies so far just confirm how much of an emotional meltdown the reactions here really are. Your comment has managed to have nothing to do with the point I was making.
You're getting the responses you earned by intentionally being flippant as possible.
If you had presented your point more thoughtfully, maybe I'd have spoon fed the point of my response, which 100% relates to what you said: your model of time compression is describing the speed of creating code.
But Bun is more than lines of code and serves as core infrastructure for lots of other projects. It's a terrible look in terms of governance to approach this migration as they have, especially the initial denial.
That shouldn't be contentious.
There's no reason to think there was an 'initial denial'. That's the point. Everyone here is saying there was denial because all of this happened in 9 days, and again, that's a silly assertion to make when humans did not create or review the code. Someone can have a swift turn in opinion when an incredible amount of change happens in a short time. The LoC comment I made was simply to serve as an illustration to how fast things can change with LLM generated code.
I'm being flippant because this should be incredibly easy to understand.
