I feel this in my bones. I also get to watch the misalignment feedback loop close itself when the next agent sees that security rules aren't followed because of a hallucinated 20 line justification in a code comment, and then it decides that the project _is_ a demo and then confidently writes even more security holes into the codebase.

Then when you catch the issue, the agent pushes back against the fix because it would need a schema change and production DB migration.
