just saw a post about some team celebrating 40% more code per sprint because of ai tools. it's always the same story with these dashboards. they were getting all these broken try-catch blocks inline that basically swallowed exceptions and killed their centralized handler. i've seen this exact mess in crawl logs when people just dump junk schema into a template without checking anything. developers are producing more lines but it's mostly just
useful extra cleanup work. the whole point is to get same results with less effort, not more bloat.
the dashboard counted the cleanup as output too. ime seeing this everywhere lately.
