My experience with this has been that it front-loads a lot of the LLM interactions, which can be exhausting without a reward (i.e. output.) And then, when I get the output, it's so large as to be hard to review/grok.

In other words, it feels a bit like when my coworker delivers me a month's worth of work in a single PR.
