Sure, I don’t dispute any of that. But it's not a given that using LLMs means you’re going to have unnecessary code. They can even help to reduce the amount of code. You just have to be detailed in your prompting about what you do and don’t want, and work through multiple iterations until the result is good.

Of course if you try to one shot something complex with a single line prompt, the result will be bad. This is why humans are still needed and will be for a long time imo.
