"that’s when it struck me. coding isn’t about the finished product. its a lot like writing. its about the process. its about how you approach a problem. its critical thinking."

From a business perspective, they don't care about this. They just want it built as inexpensively as possible in a reasonable time frame.

Vibe coding is here to stay.

To each their own, of course. But

> what was the point of it all if i didn’t learn a thing?

Money. Freedom. Supporting a family. Doing things faster. Keeping up with changing times. etc..

There are a ton of different answers, and it depends on your goals.

> coding isn’t about the finished product

Again, to each their own.
