Engineers spend over half their time on non-coding tasks.

Imagine a typical SWE at a typical co. At least half of the time is spent on alignment, meetings, and fighting chaos. No magic will speed them even 2x. Moreover, hastily created and reviewed code does create more tech debt. Google's last year report was a much smaller speed up. Of course, it could be more with modern agents, but I doubt it's 8x. https://newsletter.getdx.com/p/how-much-does-ai-impact-development-speed
