one theory I am thinking through is that people say AI is good at greenfield and has a harder time editing code in a legacy code base.
So maybe you just treat projects as greenfield instead of editing.
Like if you want to make changes to a page you generate a new version of the page instead of editing the old one in place.
Then you keep the old version as fallback if problems come up with the new version.
