Exactly my experience. I remember thinking to myself that if this is what people get exposed to when they try to use a coding agent, no wonder there's so much bad-mouthing going on about LLMs. You use CC and you get usable output without much hassle, and in the end it costs way less because you aren't fighting with a substandard model.

Frankly, Gemini seems like Codex was two years ago. Lots of back and forth and nothing of value in the end.
