Cause programmers never had to fix legacy code or anything.
all of their examples are pre ai anyway. it's almost impossible to change a core data model thing without ai too.
all the legacy codebases I've worked in have very much been shaped by the original abstractions they decided on. as much as I wanted to change them, there wasn't really a way to do so because of the scale and backwards compatibility requirements
