One agent generates : Spec -> Code then

Another agent: Code -> Inverted Spec

then compare Spec and Inverted Spec.

If there is a Gap, a Human fixes and clarifies the Gap.

This is like Generator and Discriminator aspects of GAN models or Autoencoder models.

we're going to end up speaking past each other - but generally I do agree with you and am not denouncing the importance of formal verification methods. I do think abstractions are going to dominate the human ux above them
