Thanks for reading. The question the article addresses is, "What would have to be true to check in English to the repo' and the answer is grounded in how business works: it seeks to minimize costs. Maintenance of code rather than very detailed English happens to be cheaper.

We already do check English into the repo. That's context doc and rules for agents. But we also keep programming language source. It's not an either/or. Having both the context doc and the generated source is very useful for debugging or extending the app.

Your point and problem are both moot, I fear. The way we program has changed.

If the question is not worth asking, why did Thoughtworks ask it?
