That's mostly (though not 100%) true, and a fair comment to make here.

Something that's a little relevant to how I work here is that I deliberately use big-team software engineering methods - issue trackers, automated tests, CI, PR code reviews, comprehensive documentation, well-tuned development environments - for all of my personal projects, because I find they help me move faster: https://simonwillison.net/2022/Nov/26/productivity/

But yes, it's entirely fair to point out that my use of LLMs is quite detached from how they might be used on large team commercial projects.
