> ... then you can fix it

I recall working on a project that used (MSVC) VC++ and a coworker found a bug in the compiler. We reported the issue to Microsoft and they eventually patched it.

You may find yourself arguing explicitly for open source dev tools if you continue down this line. There are many commercial cases where "you can fix it" does not apply to the dev toolchain and you will find yourself reliant on a provider. At that point, the trustworthiness of "compiler provider" and "local LLM provider" is the pertinent discussion (e.g. provider vs. provider instead of LLM vs compiler).

That’s only on the hobbyist level. On the enterprise level, there are lots of contracts involved that requires speedy bugs correction.

well sure, of course i would :) but ig i meant more so "can be fixed" in a way it can't with llms, open source or not
