I get two types of merge requests nowadays. The first is a traditional piece of code. Something simple like a bit of marketing text to a page or a new react component that adds another css effect to some content. The second type is a long complex merge request, for something more complex than a menu (not really though)…tabs, uses new dependencies, none of the old dependencies, is filled with emdashed code comments about personal dev choices (instead of logic flow or business context), and the core file convention is named after the implementers library choice: `react-tabs`. If I bring up any of these issues with the implementer they tell me “we can fix it later and they need to just get it out”.

The first type of merge request is one that should be generated by an LLM and the second is one that should be generated by a human.

Instead I get neither but I get efficiency so someone can deliver at the last minute. And so I can can go mop up the work later or my job is hell the next time “we just need to get this out the door”.
