that’s not guaranteed to work. Other parts of the CodeBase that didn’t conflict could depend on the discarded code.

Well they did mention the code doesn't work.

The point is that the merge conflict was resolved, regardless of whether there was a working product at the end. Which there apparently isn’t.

It's implied by the fact that early in the post they say:

>"To test this system, we pointed it at an ambitious goal: building a web browser from scratch."

and then near the end, they say:

>"Hundreds of agents can work together on a single codebase for weeks, making real progress on ambitious projects."

This means they only make progress toward it, but do not "build a web browser from scratch".

If you're curious, the State of Utopia (will be available at https://stateofutopia.com ) did build a web browser from scratch, though it used several packages for the networking portion of it.
