Exactly, we're all software engineers here and even for us it took weeks/months to get to a position where we can really leverage LLMs (think platform, security, observability, etc).

Imagine being in charge of a physical factory, sure you might have a 200 USD Claude subscription but you also have a floor full of physical machines that have, if you're lucky, an undocumented debug interface and a paper manual. Not to mention safety inspections, insurance, etc.

You can't vibe code a factory floor. Not yet, perhaps in 5 - 10 years but there are some very hard, non technical, problems that need to be fixed before we'll see meaningful improvement there.

I'm pretty confident with enough context, Opus 7.5 will be able to vibe code a factory floor.
