@ivmirx I wonder if there's a parallel to requirements docs.
The analogy isn't perfect, but with requirements
- you have a lot of text
- changing the requirements is not fun
- drift happens a lot and is annoying
LLM's are much better at somewhat repeatedly compare text and code and verify spec drift.

@ctietze yes, I have a suspicion that from the LLM "point of view", repeating chunks of imperative layout code are easier to digest than declarative staircases with different indentation. They're more of discrete building blocks compared to the long method chain flow. But I have no proofs, just an intuition of what modern coding agents do better.
