This story's been going around for a while but at the end of the day the issue is a low/no/whatever coding platform where the development occurs against the production version conflated by not having any sort of backup or versioning for the production data / database. AKA this is a problem with "Replit", anyone sufficiently drunk or distracted could achieve this outcome without a coding agent.
