The bottleneck in software used to be writing the code. Now the bottleneck shifted to whether (and how) to build the feature/product/thing (upstream validation) and whether to ship it (downstream quality/review).

Why aren't we seeing these type of articles talking about the first bottleneck? Even the ones talking about code review don't mention the upstream work.

Writing software is still one of the most expensive things you can do to a business even with LLms.
