As little as possible of my work is boilerplate, but some times there will be something like “I want to take width,height, and depth as arguments from the command as variables”, and poof, all the argv tedium is done.
And even better, that can be done entirely deterministicly, and once written, free to use! Instead of fixing the root cause they’re using the ultimate hammer. It’s such a cognitive surrender and a complete moral sellout.
