How can a bash one-liner be more expensive to build than a full-blown CLI tool with the maintenance burden that comes with it?
A bash oneliner can be a chain of 5+ programs, each buffering the stdin/out, what if the CLI is doing the same operation via streams instead? Just a random example but that can easily be worth it
I just don't like the fictional straw man where an expert has somehow been brainwashed by AI into forgetting everything they ever knew.
Because I don't think I've ever heard anyone say an expert gets brainwashed by AI into forgetting everything they ever knew. Maybe losing some skills that require regular exercise. Or get lazy about implementations when spawning dozens of super useful agents. But come on. Don't build your strawman out of a fictional strawman.
