With that framing, I suppose "vibe-coding" would be in a similar realm to "button pushing" or "lever pulling" or "handle cranking".

There's often a transitional period where the task exists and needs to be done... but without enough human thought and judgement it's only temporary, and ends when it becomes cheap enough to hook up a motor or actuator.
