> Why does EVERYTHING has to be geared towards agents?

Moving forward one can expect the most amount of code to be generated by agents, so it makes sense to optimise for that use case.

(Note that i’m not saying it’s good or bad)

Yes, I wholehartly agree. Coming from a week of agent-coding - out of pure curiosity - most code was generated by agents, which I had then to delete and rewrite to use like a quarter of statements to achieve the same, in an understandable, maintainable way.

But that's just my experience.

How do the agent and human use cases meaningfully differ here, though?

I'm pretty sure GP's complaint is about the prose description, rather than the actual functionality.
