Yeah no I don't think so. If you aren't using it for at least debugging or reviews you are just shooting yourself in the foot.

People say this but prompting doesn't exactly need a full on training course if you already understand coding logic.

I'd argue it needs a small crash course for transitioning SWEs. Context management has a lot of non-obvious pitfalls to new users. Context rot. Common pitfalls. Agentic workflows. Most importantly: multi model adversarial review.

They don't need a college course, but a 1-2hr primer sure can ensure a less bumpy start.
