Cc @nicolefv.bsky.social only because I most recently heard this metric in your interview on Lenny's podcast and you are literally the expert here.

This leads to a lot of refactoring. Which I think produces fewer hallucinations and overall code quality (at the cost of making each iteration a bit slower than letting the AI build a whole system at once). It also makes it easier for me to review the code in each iteration.

Am I alone here?
