Right. I now have responsibility for rather large codebases where the person who generated it with agentic tools (I'd say it's better than pure 'vibe coding') barely understands how it works. This is okay for unimportant parts of the codebase, but completely unacceptable for a critical piece of infrastructure where it really needs to be well thought out.

Not really. At some point the technical debt accumulates and the only option is to trash it all and start over.
The only party that profits here are the cloud token providers.
