I dont think parent comment was being petty. Not understanding what agents write, especially in larger and/or more complex code bases is a valid thing to be concerned about. It's not really about understanding assembly or machine code, and I think more about really understanding your code and how things fit together. That way when something goes wrong you have an idea of how to fix it.

"I dont write code anymore I just review what Claude Code writes" is, unfortunately, not a unique way to view coding with agents. About a million people have discussed it like this in the past year or so.
