And for as long that that runs on your computer, I don't care.
But the problem is that for many people they now believe it's ok to present a 10k line vibe-coded PR that only has been verified against external behavior, and some Senior Engineer needs to review it, in time, under pressure, without too much push-back, and lastly, it's the Senior Engineer that gets paged at 2am because something has fallen over.
Also, those scripts tend to start a life of their own, and because it looks good enough, people don't look at them again.
I recall a bug of someone vibe-coding a cleanup script for folders older than $x (on Windows).
Get the CreationDate, and sort. Delete older than $x. Except CreationDate can be null and null is always smaller than $x.
Oops.
I mean, that's more the fault of either whoever made that field nullable (the file existed before the Big Bang?) or whoever made "null < (integer)" not throw an error in that language!
Wait a minute...

Ahh, I see this was in the magical world of JavaScript.
