I don’t have to debug Emacs every day to write code. My CI workflow just runs every time a PR is created. When I type ‘make tests’, I get a report back. None of those things are perfect, but they are reliable.
If you work in a team, you work with other people, whose reliability is more akin to LLMs than to the deterministic processes you're describing.
What you're describing is a case of mismatched expectations.
