But today, in an LLM debate, we say "it makes the defect rate unpredictable". But then the pushback comes back: "it's OK, we'll just add a little process fix. We'll do some code review. We are all Very Careful Engineers around here, it'll be fine."
With other tools, we could do a little work, point at a metric or two and maybe find a useful middle ground. But now we just have to look them in the eye and say: no you aren't. You were never careful enough, before. *We* were never careful enough.
