Those stereotypes look more like misconceptions (to put it charitably). Vibe coding doesn't mean one doesn't care about software working correctly, it only means not caring about how the code looks.

So unless you're also happy about not reporting bugs to project managers and people using low-code tools, I urge you to reconsider the basis for your perspective.

This isn't remotely true. Vibe coding explicitly does not care about whether software works correctly because the fundamental tenet is not needing to understand how the software works (& by extension being unable to verify whether it works correctly).

Nobody cares how the code looks, this is not an art project. But we certainly care if the code looks totally unmaintainable, which vibe-coded slop absolutely does.
