They simply aren't as useful for production stuff as they are for little projects.

They are useful! Just not the 1000x return you get on a tiny thing or the 100x return you get on a small thing.

I completely disagree. If you do the architecture and review the work, they can do bulletproof production work.

I have them review each other’s work before I review it, and they also do security audits of the entire codebase on a regular schedule.

For frontend work especially, the productivity boost is insane. Claude built me a replacement for a complex UI that took a human developer 6 months to build poorly, and Claude did it in two hours.
