How are you going to read the code if it's not structured in a way you understand?

I think the argument is that there won't be a reason to read the code. If you want a change, just let the agent change it.

Similar to the output of a compiler. Nobody (with very few exceptions) reviews its machine code output. No reason to do that. If you want to change it, just recompile.

(I don't share this view, but I think a substantial and growing fraction of folks does.)
