That’s fair, but I’m not arguing that it’s a higher-level language. I was trying to illustrate that it’s just to help people code more easily - as all of the other steps were.
If you asked ten programmers to turn a given set of instructions into code, you’d end up with ten different blocks of code. That’s the nature of turning English into code.
The difference is that this is a tool that does it, not a person. You write things in English, it produces code.
FWIW, I enjoy using a hex-editor to tinker around with Super Famicom ROMs in my free time - I’m certainly not anti-coding. As OP said, though, AI is now pretty good at generating working code - it’s daft not to use it as a tool.
