Context management, plan mode versus agent mode, skills vs system prompt, all make a huge difference and all take some time to build intuition around.

Not all that hard to learn, but waiting for things to settle down assumes things are going to settle down. Are they? When?

That these facets of use exist at all are indicative of immature product design.

These are leaked implementation details that the labs are forcing us to know because these are weak, early products and they’re still exploring the design space. The median user doesn’t want to and shouldn’t have to care about details like this.

Future products in this space won’t have them and future users won’t be left in the dust by not learning them today.

Python programmers aren’t left behind by not knowing malloc and free.

Someone will package up all that intuition and skills and I imagine people won't have to do any of these things in future.

You wait for everyone to go broke chasing whatever, and then take their work for your own. It's not that hard to copy and paste.
