If you're like me you're doing it to establish a greater level of trust in generated code. It feels easier to draw out the hard guard-rails and have something fill out the middle -- giving both you, and the models, a reference point or contract as to what's "correct"

Answering myself: maybe I feel much more urgency and motivation for this in the age of AI because the effects can be felt so much more acute and immediately.

Because a) the benefits are bigger, and b) the effort is smaller. When something gets cheaper and more valuable, do more of it.

For me it's because coworkers are pumping out horrible slop faster than ever before.
