> What really matters, I think, is how the entire delivery process/pipeline is designed: whether we have tests, QA, monitoring, if it's easy to revert a bad release, if we have on call engineers, tech support, backups, replicas etc.

Yeah I agree with this. Mitigating some production issue should not require a deep dive engineering effort, it should be routine. I just worry that LLM-assistance seems like it's going to turbocharge technical debt accrual and that freaks me out--the prospect of defaulting on technical debt is nightmare fuel.
