But replit isn’t just a coding assistant - it’s value is that it handles all the associated parts of launching a web app. It manages api secrets, hosts the app, does user authentication, etc. And its target user is “semi-technical”, you don’t even see the code it writes by default.

Creating a db and not accidentally permanently deleting it is one of the capabilities it should have.

I think it’s like asking someone “how many times does your pen change direction when writing the word strawberry on paper”.

You need to think really hard to get to an answer, because that’s more fine grained than the way you usually think about words and letters.
