to me, vibe coding seems better used to provide a draft of the work so people with actual skills can then do the final work. A draft made with crayons, dogshit and stale beer but draft none the less.

Or you could just describe what you want to someone who knows how to design code stuff and can ask clarifying questions.

9 times out of 10, this "vibe draft" sends people down a terrible path that they would have never ventured had there been an adult in the room. I swear I review so much code that sets off in the wrong direction because of this, and I am sick of it.
