"I'll try this newfangled steel constructions if they actually forge each rebar on site".

You are saying that you'd trust the new and unproven technology more if it didn't rely on old and proven technology and instead reinvented everything from scratch. That's a somewhat illogical take.

Of course I was being facetious.

But by "correct", I meant that it would need to be able to work through such multi-level tasks as a compiler with semantic analysis, error checking, optimization, and code generation to reliably transcribe the source code. Not just emit lorum ipsum executables.

Why? Most engineers can't do that either. That's the whole point of having tools, that you don't need to stand their and mumble about "first principles".

It's about as useful as requiring your engineers to forge computers from sand on upwards.
