I have also found LLMs are a great tool for understanding a new code base, but it's not clear to me what your comment has to do with skill atrophy.

Well ultimately the skill I care about is understanding software, changing it, and making more of it. And clearly that isn't atrophying.

My syntax writing skills may well be atrophying, but I'll just do a leetcode by hand once in a while.
