> How much time do you lose when doing things like "verify plan with a second clean agent" instead of just reading and fixing it yourself in 5 min?

The marketing strategy for the AI firms is to get people with poor reading and writing skills socially dependent on their "tools".

The selling point is that you can delay "reading and fixing it yourself in 5 minutes" ad infinitum, consequences be damned.

What we gain from LLMs is avoiding (heaven forbid) having to read and write for another 15 minutes.
