But if the LLM can use decompilers in the process? It already uses many tools (grep, python, sed, etc...); so why not a decompiler and then take it from there?
I've seen this approach already in practice: LLM+decompiler give better code than the original code that the binary was compiled from.
I'd imagine it's just a lot less token efficient than having it write the code in a high level language.
