Languages designers will have to make a choice whether to continue to design for humans or for big slop machines. The design goals are not compatible. This is obvious. I don't understand how anyone can miss such an obvious point.

Another obvious point is that an industry that runs on code slop will stagnate in terms of language an human tooling design.
