The two most important fundamentals of computer programming are, arguably, consistency and encapsulation.

Consistency lets you write something once and know it will work the same way indefinitely. This is a huge force multiplier and the main way computers have transformed society.

Encapsulation lets you decompose a complex system into predictable, independent pieces, allowing reuse and more complex programs.

Chat-prompt "programming" breaks both.
