It'll output the same code given the same prompts yes, but you don't just accept whatever it puts out, it requires iterations before it's actually ready to be committed as none of the agents write perfect code on their first try. So, it's not a "false dichotomy", I'm just looking at larger things than "LLM does inference"
Ah, I see the confusion now. You are assuming one looks at the code at all and adjusts it to fit whatever style guide is needed. The parent you were initially talking to is talking about vibe coding, where whatever the agent spits out is accepted on the first try as long as it works for a given feature. Therefore the more usage one has the more features one can build.
