> how long would it take you to code that diff?

My scrum/agile coach says, by parallelizing prompts, a single developer can babysit multiple changes in the same time slice. By having a sequence of prompts ready before hand, a single developer can pipeline those one after the other. With an IDE that helps schedule such work, a single developer can effectively hyper-thread their developmental workflow. If the developer is epoll'ing at 10x the hertz... that's another force multiplier. Of course context switches & side-channels are of concern, but a voice over my shoulder tells me that as long as memory safety is guaranteed, everything should turn up alrigd3adb33f.
