LLMs don't need to focus on the business. They can make the ideal software for you. Who cares if it's not the perfect software for me? I can have my LLM do that. Especially if there's an open source base for me to start.
A separate question. Consider I'm responding here to (amongst other things):

When I use LLMs to write software for me, it is rare that I think "this is great, I should share it". Even when I do, I am aware of how fast these things are improving, so while I put great effort into, for example, having Claude make me a nice isochrone map generator, I fully expect that a year from now any similar project (even if different enough the LLM will not simply clone my git repo) will be a one-shot prompt.
What I did will only stand the test of time if all the AI labs shut down and nobody takes over from them. Same with vibe-Photoshop-clones: a year from now, anyone who wants this kind of thing will get it with one prompt, not thousands, and this specific instance will likely be forgotten.
