To be honest, the same applies when a developer gets promoted to team lead. I made this experience on my own that I no longer got in touch with the code written. Reasons are slightly different (for me it was a lack of time and documentation)

I am a scientist who rarely collaborates (unlike programmers and unlike most scientists).

When I wrote a paper in collaboration some time ago, it felt very weird to have large parts of the paper that I had superficial knowledge of (incidentally, I had retyped everything my co-author did, but in my own notation) but no profound knowledge of how it was obtained, of the difficulties encountered. I guess this is how people who started vibe coding must feel.

To an extend, AI can help with explaining what the code does. So, computer says why it says "no".

If your computer says No just ditch it and buy a non-Apple computer.
