There's just different types of programming, I also find that if I give a decent description of a bug an LLM will often find the problem, and that great in a system that's mostly legacy and hard to repro. LLMs are also good for quick small scale from-scratch projects.
But there's a middle ground where you're really have to build something out that's super complicated and performant. Or do refactors that have a high quality bar. Situations where code bloat really matters. LLMs tend to create crazy amounts of code, not really thinking through the broader system and taking system level in-variance constraints seriously.
