LLMs are trained on code written by humans. They are most “familiar” with popular programming languages, have large datasets of examples and idioms to draw on. I don’t see the advantage of inventing a new language the machine must “learn” with syntax unlike anything it’s been trained on.

Validation and testing are also already things we do with human written code, too.

Plus LLMs need semantics just like humans do. Maybe more. Removing variable names seems utter madness.
