No matter how mad this makes people, its still true.

What makes the code actually useful in most cases however, is enough understanding of the program to modify as its needed. That's where LLMs fall flat. Even when the code works, its terrible at adjusting the code to fit a specific use case. Dont even get met started on usable documentation or maintenance.

I disagree about better code. Claude has been pretty bad at understanding external context and deriving why you're doing something from the implementation. This can result in wonky structure that you need to fix, or at the very least tell Claude to redo over and over untill it looks clean and organized.
