I mean, there are some exceptions on when 1600 PRs are acceptable (Refactorings, etc) but otherwise agree.

What really bugs me is that today, it is easier than ever to do this (even the LLM can do this!) and people still don't do it.

I ended up overengineering a LangGraph workflow to handle this. It forces the LLM to generate and pass its own tests in a sandbox before I even see the PR. The API costs are significantly higher because of the retry loops, but it filters out the low effort attempts.
