There’s a marked difference in quality depending on context, usage of sub-agents, initial specs, and model-wise a big difference from what Opus would produce and Fable.

I’m not saying I’m hand coding, but saying getting good outputs doesn’t take any technique means your definition of good outputs probably isn’t very refined. And saying it hasn’t taken technique for 4 years is just flat wrong.

I agree there is some technique involved. It's just so trivial compared to hand coding that I find the comparison meaningless.
