You are right, so to be precise: that was a hypothesis. It could well be a cheaper human dev doing something they don't understand.

- The UI components are the ones that cheap AIs default to
- multiple regressions in functionality (can’t delete a card easily, no 2FA check, a lot of purchases are missing because somehow they botched a migration?)
- they had a consistent design system for the FE before this, and now it looks like “Generic Gaming Website From 2025-2026. [Phrase 1. Phrase 2. Phrase 3]”
Even if they outsourced to devs that used AI, they are asking for a lawsuit to remove core security safeguards, while rolling old subscription plans onto the new plan in the same rewrite/migration.
