I use Claude Code Max and weekly limit drains in 2 days. In tokens that would be thousands.

Well, you cannot predict how development will look in 6-12 months. So I would not worry about it. Agenting coding gave 5x-10x boost, autonomous loops give another 5x-10x. Who knows what will be next.

"Don't worry about maintainability; by the time you get there it will be solved"? That's gambling the future of the company on the rate of improvement of AI. If the company is not in the AI space, that may not be a bet they want to make.

Well, I saw some stats that 80% of ProductHunt Launches disappear with year or two (may be wrong with exact numbers). I'm pretty sure lack of maintainability is not what killed em all.

On the other hand I'm 25 years in software development, I know what code AI generates now, I'm pretty sure it's better than I can produce or 99% of humans. Just needs good directions.
