> while a Semi can do all the things you can do with a scooter

You may be able to lane split in a semi, but it also has excessive environmental impact.

The LLM only has to parse the request and farm out execution to the LSP. It saves you from having to find the function definition.

> But if a Semi is all you have

Seems like a pretty lousy work situation when you have LLMs but no decent IDE.

> the opposite is not true.

You can't ("shouldn't") take a semi on a sidewalk or down a narrow alley.
