I agree with the thrust of the blog post but honestly most of the increased line count comes from the fact that LLMs have been whipped into leaving moronic comments like

// Create a copy of the state

const stateCopy = copyState(state);

>>_--__-+(OP)
I'm waiting for the front line coding agents to just strip all comments from LLM output; it seems like a very reasonable thing to do, given you can just ask for comments where you think they're useful.
