LLMs are powerful assistants—as long as the user keeps a firm mental model of the problem. That’s why, for now, they complement software engineers rather than replace them (at least today).

When you already know exactly what needs to be built and simply want to skip the drudgery of boilerplate or repetitive tasks, a coding CLI is great: it handles the grunt work so you can stay focused on the high-level design and decision-making that truly matter (and also more fun).
