But it's so easy now to redo it all ground up, and if models improve, do it better next time.
I exaggerate only a little.

I'm with you on this one, having "vibe coded" some smaller internal tools on GPT 5, and then re-vibed it on Opus 4.6 and 5.5 -- they basically just fixed all of the problems without me doing much of anything other than prompting it to look at the existing code and make it "better".
Pretty much. We're intensely vibe coding something that has gone through so many requirement changes. The code has become very gnarly. I took a stab at basically one prompt rewrite of the whole thing. And it wasn't there, but it was 80% of the way there. and a hell of a lot cleaner.
How much is your budget for tokens?
As long as it's under the budget for X number of senior software devs, it seems competitive.
