This seems to suffer from what a lot of vibe coded projects suffer from, which is just a whole lot of unnecessary text everywhere. I find one shot outputs always have a lot of jargon, extra "micro copy" and displays the same information multiple times in multiple places. It makes it difficult at a glance to understand what you're looking at.

I'm not sure what in the training set causes the models to do this, even in my own experience I'll be specific about the feature I'm building and the model will add an unnecessary status message for no reason.

Yeah, I also notice that a lot in vibe coded apps. Tbf it's what a mid level dev would write as copy if they were given no product requirements. Kinda hard to shift from engineer brain to product brain in the middle of implementation. During a hackathon I kept a PRODUCT.md file with the product "vision", and ask a strong frontier model to put on a "product manager hat" to review the copy before committing changes.
