Source code is fundamentally language for a human to talk. To get a computer to understand it takes a whole bunch of important extra steps. Having agentic LLM fill the source code up with slop to the stage that humans cannot understand it any more might "work", but it's changing the purpose of the source code without explicitly negotiating that as a feature. Once you have large-scale LLM generated code, you're unmaintainable by humans any more.
