Wonder if this tracks with the fact that when you're actively thinking time feels like it slows down but when you're passively absorbing time feels faster.

Thusly letting llms do the 'heavy lifting' for five minutes while you dither feels like 1 minute of actual coding. But then you need to also spend 2 minutes fixing up the llm output resulting in 8 minutes wall time. Time prompting + generation + fixing. Vs time just coding directly.
