I think c is the only way it can sustainably work. The idea of b, that software is running and nobody there knows how it works, doesn’t seem like a good foundation for a business to run on.

My personal challenge is that if c, generate then review, isn’t pretty close to a one-shot then I am almost certainly negative for time versus creating from scratch (accounting for over-documenting, prompting, and enforced pauses for generation).
The sunk cost fallacy bites and then bites again and again.
