One can hardly control one coding agent for correctness, let alone multiple ones... It's cool, but not very reliable or useful.

Why not? I'm assuming we're not talking about "vibe coding" as it's not a serious workflow, it was suggested as a joke basically, and we're talking about working together with LLMs. Why would correctness be any harder to achieve than programming without them?

Because they output so much code. It's a wall.

Using a coding agent can make your entire work day turn into doing nothing but code reviews. I.e. the least fun part: constant review of a junior dev that's on the brink of failing their probation period with random strokes of genius.
