I suspect experienced folks are well aware of the subjectivity of quality. How? Change control.

Quality control exists until The Business deems otherwise. The reasons vary: vulnerability, promotion, whatever. Usually not my place to say.

Personally, my 'product' isn't code. Even the 'code' isn't code. For every 8 hours of meetings I do, I crank out maybe 20 lines of YAML (Ansible). Then, another 4 hours of meetings handing that out/explaining the same basics for Political Points.

The problem(s) relating to speed or job security have remarkably little to do with code; generated or not. The people I work with are functionally co-dependent because they don't use LLMs or... manuals.

All this talk about "left behind"... to survive a bear, one doesn't have to be the fastest. Just not the slowest.
