Why did you take this position? Is it better for you to type out a specific function or class rather than it being generated by an LLM?

Define better. Faster to literally write the code - LLM. Deeper understanding of how it works - write yourself. Less skill atrophy - write yourself. More fun - write yourself. You can argue all these points and they’ll be different for everyone, but my feeling is that everything I listed in the original comment are clear additives to my process/learning.
