My arc of using AI code generation tools started by steadily adding more and more guardrails. I realized the returns were diminishing while cost, complexity, and latency climbed. Mutation testing made it obvious I had gone too far. While there is a time and place for it, I completely lost the flow and was fighting against my dev setup. I’ve since found a better balance: the most strict, opinionated dev environment, especially on types and linting, with the least code and configuration.

Years ago, I used mutation testing in a pretty big Java project. Let me tell you: You don't want so much coverage. It's usually a waste of time and makes changes to existing code very annoying. Keep mutation testing/high coverage for a small selection of _very important_ code, but don't overdo it

Why are you making Europeans pay ~15% more for the same product? Instant nope from me on that basis alone.
