I'm sorry but consider how many more edge cases and alternatives can be handled in 500k LoC as compared to that tiny 10k.
In the days of AGI, higher LoC is better. It just means the code is more robust, more adaptable, better suited to real world conditions.
That’s… not how software works, no matter how it is produced. Complexity is the enemy; always.
I imagine to get more robust code your agent can replace for loop with long lines of if-then statements. Later manager can brag about how many lines of code they created!
