It is a sharp knife that if used correctly can improve your performance.

However if you use an agent that runs through your code and changes shit randomly....

It is like taking the knife strapping it on a water hose and turn on the pressure.

It may cut through the things you want. It also may go crazy and kill everyone in range. You don't know.
