No I understand the nuance. But it's only bad to have preferences about things that barely matter if you waste time on them. You don't have to fight the llm, you just tell it what you prefer and it does that, that's what's great about them. (If it is not listening to your directives, then you have other problems.)

You use the intentionally vague word "implementers" to abstract whether you're delegating to a human or to an AI. But the key point is that these are not the same thing. If I'm delegating to a person, that person is the "implementer". If I'm using an AI to generate an implementation, I am still the "implementer", it is merely a computer program working on my behalf.

If it works why fight it? Because it's not what you would have done? Implementer is getting blurry to me, at least.
