I think part of the problem -- answering all of why people are somehow OK with this, and even why the AI does this in the first place -- is that the majority of software developers never got to the point of understanding any of this: the lack of understanding how to carefully structure data surrounds a question they don't even know how to pose, much less answer, and so "write some tests then incrementally try to make them work without breaking any of the existing tests" is the only way they know how to develop at all. In the end, that means that, with the current state of the art (which might change, of course... potentially quickly), your strategy of treating the AI as a junior engineer who fundamentally isn't ready to do your senior-level architecture job makes a lot of sense.
