Yes, it's possible, and yes it's not slop. The main idea is you stop manually driving opencode/codex/grok, instead you use them to create GitHub issues. My ready-for-agent harness then implements, reviews, commits, create a PR and merges these issues. Lot less babysitting. Perfect fit if you are already using Matt Pocock's skills.

What use is a road map that has to be abandoned? What company does even do road maps? Code talks. The rest is just marketing.

And issues: at least they are known and logged, and people discuss work-arounds, that's something.

Only pure functions: yeah, that's the point of a functional language, isn't it?

Variable shadowing: many languages don't have this, IMO it's a feature. You can always simply prefix local variables with "l_" or "a_".

Pain to build HTML in Elm? Don't get this. It looks slightly different, that's all. As soon as you start adding your templating code, it gets messy when you use HTML.

I think what most people did after signing in is exporting their bookmarks and deactivating their account...

Definitely switching too, but really would like to get my bookmarks back. But I rate that as less than 10%. Clearly another company that didn't realise it was incompetent.
