Same here. I got access to Mythos two months ago, it confronted me with decades of nasty bugs I wrote. This has been stressing me out a lot, caused sleep deprivation (the bugs follow me in my sleep, yes, really). All other progress is halted, I've been squashing bugs day and night. I see a light at the end of the tunnel.
Bottom line: it's a good thing. My software will be better after that. Even if it's currently not good for my ego (and my health). But I'm glad for all the tools that help me improve quality.
And sure, I can just ask LLMs to fix the bugs, which works well half of the time, and produces bad slop in the other half. This is where human expertise and judgement is still necessary to avoid letting our code bases drift into LLM spaghetti hell.
