> I’m saying that in my experience across multiple models, the follow up prompts don’t fix prior underlying issues. They usually patch on top instead, unless you give them significant and time consuming guidance.

That's not my experience at all, and I have been using models that are far from being cutting edge. Even in the cases where a model generates utter nonsense, a couple of clarifying questions is all it takes to get it back on track.

But that might be a factor of the project being worked on, and the extension of the changes being asked.
