> If it writes code I don’t understand or wouldn’t be able to write myself

For me the bar is higher - it's not that I wouldn't understand it, it's that its easier to miss mistakes when reviewing than when writing from scratch. In the same way you may have ignored the typo in this comment and understood what I meant regardless of the mistake. But that doesn't work for programming - a mistake is a mistake and likely matters in edge cases even if it's not immediately obvious.
