If it takes 1+ hours of work to remove a feature flag branch in an area of code, I wouldn't trust the correctness of anything the AI writes and would be super skeptical about anything the humans had written.
It takes a long time because it hits a lot of files, not because it's logically complex. Also, that's why unit and integration tests exist.
