Sure, but if I can summon up a summary of what’s going on for those abstraction layers in a matter of seconds, I don’t particularly care whether they were overly verbose or not. There’s no world where you can hand me a pile of code and expect me to be able to comprehend it faster than an LLM can walk the stack anymore, even the most beautiful pristine code that would make Linus Torvalds praise you is easier to have an LLM parse it and explain it to you than doing it yourself.
And the LLM doesn’t care. You could hand it a pile of the best code ever and a pile of brainfuck and probably the difference between comprehending one over the other is in the seconds if not milliseconds of compute time.
