This is a great point. In the past this is how I learned to architect software in general as you are never the only contributor and often must accommodate the contributions of contributors who are early in the careers. Good software architecture reduces the damage possible by low quality contributions.

I have had great success with contract driven development workflows in this regard.

LLMs being effectively very knowledgeable jr engineers, slot right into those patterns.

Another interesting thing is that Rust _really_ shines with LLMs. The compiler gives very helpful messages which the LLM bounces off very effectively. If it compiles, it works, you just need to double check the logic is correct.

By contrast, with something like Go, you'd need to be on the lookout for nil pointers, race conditions and so on. Node.js / TypeScript is less dangerous, but you still have memory leaks that aren't possible in Rust and lack pattern matching so must be vigilant about type discohesion.
