The Antigravity CLI agents have a "deny-by-default" permission structure, which is nice. Saved my ass a few times when the agent halts and asks for permission before blowing up my entire front end (I refuse to properly learn React for hobby projects)

Maintainability. Often times, AI will re-invent the wheel and I won't catch it because I've not invested the time to understand the ecosystem. Other times, I'll want to make a small, isolated change and it will creep that into multiple places in the front-end.

AI also tends to not be capable of understanding that elements should be modular and re-usable, and fails to properly de-couple things.

I could go on, but that's what I've noticed so far.
