The term "vibe coding" gives me bad vibes, I feel that it is in some way an insult to my craft, the way a carpenter might feel about Ikea. But if only LLM's are going to read the code, the LoC aren't a big problem, increasing cost significantly less than if a real person would have to read it.
The two biggest issues I can think of with this approach is performance and security, with the first one only being a problem if you "make it", and the second one being too often ignored with or without vibe coding.
That IKEA comparison is an awesome, perfect analogy of vibe coding as cheap shitty furniture.
- can't be maintained over time, gonna need to replace it
- mostly simple/basic furniture
- out of place in any existing environment
- easy to break (cardboard tables!)
Sometimes that's all you need though.
