I gotta ask?: why do you think "my design is refined" means that I start without a design? The wording is fairly clear: for a design to be refined, it means it has to exist.
(I'm also not sure that vitriol is the correct word to use here; it seems, again, like needless disparagement).
> Once that part is done, is there any actual value to implementing a ring buffer by hand vs having the model do it?
Do you have an example that isn't "I use a library to do this when writing code"? This strawman comes up again and again in these types of discussion: no, I don't write a ringbuffer, I use an existing library.
You are also glossing over which group I am describing, specifically, those who are all-in on AI development and do not read nor write code.
