Curious about the other way around, how many tokens per second a productive developer codes in a day?

Much more, given that you need to incorporate the dev's thought process too.
Interesting point, i didn't consider the thought process as tokens.
I'm not sure if it's much more though.
Oh while coding i sure think far more "tokens" than i output to the editor, at least 4->1.

Now, if those should be counted in the process or only the output is a harder question.
