Vibe coding creates a dangerous illusion: that code structure doesn't matter because "you don't have to look at it."
I know a SaaS founder who can't use LLMs effectively because he has a single file with 20,000+ lines. The irony? Real developers created this mess, and LLMs learned from it.
Here's what happens: You WILL need to look at the code when things break. You WILL need context windows that can handle your complexity. Without clear structure, you become the only person who can work with that codebase.
That's not innovation. That's technical debt disguised as progress.
Smart developers use LLMs within well-architected systems, not as replacements for good practices.
