This agrees with my experience on a project I’ve been working on this year, in particular related to porting the code. I’ve developed a strategy that I’m calling “Polyglot Mirroring” where the code is written in multiple languages at once, with LLMs handling the mirroring.

I actually made a Ask HN about it just today https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45091607 but for some reason the HN algorithm never even showed it on the Ask page :/
