If you lose 8 hrs to weirdness, but save 10 hrs somewhere else, then yeah it does pay for itself.
My argument is that it doesn't need to improve overall productivity much to have positive ROI. Whether you agree that these tools improve productivity or not is another question.

That makes sense. Problem is, there exists a paradox when relying upon LLM's to make software solutions: People use them to "save time." Saving time by outsourcing understanding to LLM's circumvents learning. Without learning, the tool becomes a crutch. When the crutch breaks, there is nothing behind it to fall back onto.
