There’s nothing inherent to small components to suggest that you have to review them. If they’re small, it’s easier to tell yourself that the LLM probably got them right and you’re justified in not checking.
Bro, if I don’t have to sit there for a half hour banging out code to map structure A on to structure B, I won’t. I’ll let someone else write it and spend 5 minutes to check that the code is clean and it works
Using an LLM to write tests and small components is still vibe coding.
Vibe coding is you not reviewing what the model outputs. I read every line, often give feedback and tell the model about patterns I want to use.
I probably write like 60-70% of the code myself.
Wikipedia says:
If you are using LLMs to write e.g. small components, then you are typically understanding the structure of the program, and reviewing it.

Listen to me. I do code for a living. Nobody want to write HTML
