And therein lies the crux: some people love to craft each part themselves, whereas others love to orchestrate but not manufacture each part.

With LLMs and engineers often being forced by management to use them, everyone is pushed to become like the second group, even though it goes against their nature. The former group see the part as a means, whereas the latter view it as the end.

Some people love the craft itself and that is either taken away or hollowed out.
