Exactly, if you visualize software as a bunch separate "states" (UI state, app state, DB state) then our job is to mutate states and synchronize those mutations across the system. LLMs are good at mutating a specific state in a specific way. They are trash at designing what data shape a state should be, and they are bad at figuring out how/why to propagate mutations across a system.
