If I had said c++ would that have triggered you less?


No.

The future of coding is english, no matter what way you put it. Many people already at this point are hardly writing code and outputting things that work.

And if you want clean structure, thats accomplished with AI too. You can analyze the code for common structures, identify refactoring opportunities, and map it to code organization guidelines.


A compiler is more efficient than an 8 layer llm lasagna stack of tools. Likewise, to stay on topic: a strictly typed language is better than running five python type checkers if you really want type checking.

Its more efficient to have a llm write in a strictly typed language than to duct tape guardrails(either tools or more llm work) after the fact. Depends on what you're building of course. I speak from an industry that ships large executables. (games)
