You seem to contradict yourself. Army of agents doesn't mean the person doing that doesn't understand the code. And optimization is required no matter whether the bulk of the code is written by hand or by the machine. LLMs definitely make things actually doable where previously they were nearly impossible.

This is quite literally, objectively what it means lol. No human will ever seen it.

I'm not sure where you're getting the "objectively" from except from your self definition of what it means to let an AI agent work on a project.
A single agent can produce enough code that even a team human can't reasonably keep up with if properly reviewed. An army of agents, definitely not. Most of us this everyday at work. Some are ok with it some are not.
The way I see it, the people understand that software, somewhat similar to how most understand their cars - at a very high level -- there is wheel, steering, axles, engine, gas tank, you put petrol to run it etc etc. If it breaks down in middle of road, even with all the tools most wont likely figure out what's happening or fix the car, and eventually goto the mechanic.
