This just raised a big red flag for me:

> I use it the way I used to outsource tasks to junior developers.

Is this not concerning to you, in a broader sense? These interactions were incredibly formative for junior devs (they were for me years ago) - its how to grew new senior devs. If we automate away the opportunity to train new senior devs, what happens to the future?

Maybe in the future you will have to pay to get trained, just like people have to pay for med school.
For junior devs, I now can outsource higher level things to be accomplished: I.e. https://github.com/breck7/wws/issues
