> I think senior engineers find it very difficult to give up on line-by-line review, no matter how much better the agents have gotten.
Our industry has spent the better part of the last two decades interviewing with brain teasers and leet code questions. Reading code is a skill that we just weren't assessing for, and lots of people aren't really good at it.
I would argue that code review is mostly theater, politics, bike shedding and pedantry.
There is a lot of work to get away from "coding" and "programing" and get down to the actual engineering that really needs to happen in the industry.
