So it seems that we agree?

Solving the immediate problem should be the primary goal (otherwise you get overengineering), but the secondary goal is still important. It seems like that PM didn't consider the secondary goal at all, he achieved the primary one without considering anything else.

Incidentally, this is a pattern agents often fall into. They're great task finishers, not so great architecture designers.

I guess what I’m saying is that there is no “primary” goal, but rather a mix of things to consider, where it working at all as expected is just table stakes.
