What do you think about this being overall detrimental to code quality as it allows people to just blindly accept completions without really understanding the generated code. Similar to copy-and-paste coding.

The first example parse_expenses.py uses a float for currency - that seems to be a pretty big error that's being overlooked along with other minor issues around no error handling.

I would say the quality of the generated code in parse_expenses.py is not very high, certainly not for the banner example.

EDIT - I just noticed Github reordered the examples on copilot.github.com in order to bury the issues with parse_expenses.py for now. I guess I got my answer.
