case

I’d speculate that this was a product of its time (early Heroku days), and that a goal at the time was to get secrets out of source control. Which was an antipattern way back then.

Times have changed since then, and there’s much better tooling available to help with this problem space and surface area these days.

I think the issue is that LLMs can be so confidently and convincingly wrong about anything.

And if we (LLM tool operators) don’t know the subject matter in question, we can’t easily distinguish what they are right or wrong about.
