If by machine translation you mean something like transpiling, that's a technology that has been proven over decades, and the translators were written by hand with some attempt at formal correctness and guarantees. Translating with LLM is much newer and subject to the errors LLMs can create, such as hallucination. And I think a lot of people would still be nervous about translating an entire project of that many lines, even with the best pre-AI translators.
