Why doesn't this apply to human collaborators as well? If you need all this extra metadata to comprehend the changes, isn't that kind of going backwards? You spend time (setting up the agents, building extensive prompts that explain soooo much of how to do things, adding to whatever markdown file you think controls the parrot) and money (so many token$), to get code that you don't comprehend, and just decide to fill your repo with all of the above to... what exactly does all this accomplish? So you can later ask another parrot to "fix" something?
