This is difficult, complicated software, and not just something you can vibecode over the weekend. But AI assistance is not to be ignored, and spite driven programming is a force to be reckoned with. Somewhere out there is an angry person who's been mistreated and wants to show "them" who's the boss. Maybe. So I give it a fair chance that cheap tool path software will emerge. It's niche software, and that's exactly what AI driven development enables. Jevon's paradox may apply to software engineering after all.
