Personally, I find flow state hard to achieve when I constantly have to switch modes to debugging LLM output or an edit error that I missed.

When the majority of time is spent waiting for the main LLM to think, I will always wait a few extra seconds for a better edit than risk having to spend multiple cycles playing find-the-bug because something didn't get applied correctly somewhere.

Like most things its a tradeoff. Developer tolerance for errors is extremely low - but the error rate for Fast Apply is even lower
