The tendency of coding agents to be attached to their own work is pretty human-like to me. Like no developer wants to be told or arrive at the conclusion that their work on some task was for naught and we need to go an entirely different approach and need to scrap the work.

I wish it was generally more receptive to that idea of significantly switching gears when it seems like the right approach, but it’s relatable how they react defensively to “maybe we should switch gears and abandon your work thus far”. I know I would personally push back in that situation.
