The entire premise of MCP is misguided and completely counter to the core value proposition of ai agents.

Its insane to me how quickly people flocked to the idea of building a parallel web to maintain for non humans.

I shouldnt be surprised seeing how low priority human accessibility and ux has been on the web when compared to the needs of the all consuming parasite that is ad tech.

MCP is at its simplest just a way to describe what the different api endpoints do to an llm and we need some protocol for this. MCP works and is a fine protocol for this

It was actually a welcome change for 'web access'. There were very few open APIs left, MCP forced everyone to actually build public APIs again.
