I have one: features I've tried this on in my codebase. Because claude and gemini have both failed pretty badly.

So it's pretty stupid to just assume that critics haven't tried.

Example feature: send analytics events on app start triggered by notifications. Both Gemini and Claude completely failed to understand the component tree; rewrote hundreds of lines of code in broken ways; and even when prompted with the difficulty (this is happening outside of the component tree), failed to come up with a good solution. And even when deliberately prompted not to, like to simultaneously make cosmetic code changes to other pieces of the files they're touching.
