Yes it can. When the project is yet another javascript CRUD app, 80% isn't brand new, never existed before code, but almost-boilerplate that does exist on StackOverflow, on a heavily trodden path where the LLM will get you 80% of the way there.

You've literally repeated what I said
but with yes instead of no
Nothing changed in your description compared to what I wrote. It still remains "for a well-trodden path in a well-known language with SO-level solutions it will help you, for anything else, good luck"
I'm not contradicting what you're saying, no. I'm emphasizing that the well trodden path as being the majority of the work out there, as opposed to possibly being flippant about "anything else". if I'm reading you wrong, apologies.
