Calling using a proven tool (LLM agents) to generate code that provide real business value a "fatal flaw" was already hyperbole.

A software engineer which understands the problem to be solved, the programming language used to reify it, and the supporting libraries incorporated in order to address ancillary concerns has no need for "using LLMs in your workflow."
In other words, the act of producing source code is the last step a developer undertakes. This is usually no more than a typing exercise.
