Isn't an insult really, just an argument about terms. "Code was never the hard part" in my opinion is more about the actual writing and making it compile and fit together. The hard part is one level above: figuring what to write, not only on the architectural level, but also implicitly during the writing itself. LLMs tackle a part of it, but not the whole problem, thus "the code was never the hard part" is about "how to make the already-present plan compile", not "knowing the system underneath is not hard actually" compare with something automotive: the process for changing an intake gasket and installing a turbo is roughly the same, but if you screw up the compression on your engine in the second case, you ruin everything - saying "installing was never the hard part" means that installation is the final step, however someone still might be upset, because he or she implicitly thinks "installing" means more than just the physical process of bolting the intake on. Is it an insult to all mechanics to say that "installing stuff was never the hard part"? No, because context here naturally points to a narrow definition which excludes cases requiring engineering, i.e. adding a part in a tight space, drilling the block to make a new auxilliary installed, machining a bracket etc
