Internal/personal tooling, marketing automations, etc. tend to afford it without needing to throw it out after. These are also cases where you can simply rewrite later without having to address a mountain of debt.

If you do this work for a wage and are nearly fully alienated from the value of your labor, I understand the distaste for applying it in any circumstance. You'll care more for your personal experience of the work: how informed you appear when reporting on it to your colleagues, how your boss/colleagues will judge you when an issue arises, how much you feel you are learning from the work, how frustrating it feels to return to items at the behest of others, etc. Vibe coding in these circumstances is unpleasant.

I care about building programs that work, do their thing well and are easy to change today and in the future :) I'm not sure where you're extrapolating the rest from, vibe-coding simply isn't for long-lasting software, you need to actually be involved then. Don't get me wrong, most of the code I "produce" today is written by LLMs/agents, but almost none of it is "vibe-coded".

Personal tooling especially, since you want to be able to just do small changes over long periods of time, it's important it makes sense when you come back to it, even if you forgotten all about it since your last change.
