I am once again begging you to understand when you say shit like "It takes a lot of skill to make a prompt that doesn't generate garbage code" is that PROMPTS DO NOT INSTRUCT THE COMPUTER THEY ADJUST STATISTICS.

IT IS A STOCHASTIC PROCESS!

You have no methodology to say that "it really works now!" What you're saying is "it *feels like it works*".
