I think the the most coveted ability of a skilled senior developer, is precisely this "uncanny" ability to predict beforehand if some particular detail is important or irrelevant. This ability can only be obtained through years of experience and hubris.

Woah woah woah, that sounds like a skill set we might have to _pay_ someone for??? Can’t we just prompt the model to do that??

While I know your comment was in sarcastic jest, the question folks are asking this month is "can't we just pay one person to prompt ten models to do that?"

Yeah, most of that intuition only comes from making those mistakes yourself originally, and getting it wrong. At least for me that was the case

Not just getting it wrong, but also learning from it and be able to internalize those mistakes. There are certainly people who do the same mistakes over and over again (either realizing or not) - it's not just a matter of experience.
