I think that's true. One caveat: If you're a solo coder like me, you almost never get to talk about implementation details with anyone who (a) understands or (b) gives a flying fuck. I'm more likely to have a meaningful convo about code structure with someone on a laptop sitting next to me at the coffeehouse. So sometimes a stand-in bot to bounce your ideas off of can illuminate corners you're missing, even if it's in some ways no operating just as a chat with yourself.
