You only worked on very small codebase then. When you work on giant ones, you Ctrl+F a lot, build a limited model of the problem space, and pray the unit tests will catch anything you might have missed...

And when you work on a really big codebase you start having multiple files and have to learn tools more advanced than ctrl-f!!

Such as ctrl-shift-f

But this is an advanced topic, I don't wanna get into it

We're measuring lengths of string, but I would not say I have worked on small projects. I am very familiar with discovery, and have worked on a lot of large legacy projects that have no tests just fine.

Why are LLMs so bad at doing the same thing?
