This awful advice can’t be blanket applied and misses the point: starting from zero is extremely easy now with LLMs, the last 10% is the hardest part. Not only that, if you don’t start from zero you aren’t able to build from whatever you think the new first principles are. Spacex would not exist if it tried to extend old paradigm of rocketry.
There’s nothing wrong with starting from scratch or rebuilding an existing tool from the ground up. There’s no reason to blindly build from the status quo.
I'd have agreed with you, if the principles would be different. But what was showed in the content is EXACTLY what those tools are doing today. Actually those tools are way more powerful and considering & covering way more scenarios.

Generally speaking all the options are ok, but not if you want to have something up as fast as you can or if your team is piloting something. I think the time you spend to vibe code it is greater than to setting any of those tools up.
And BTW, you shouldn't vibe code something that flows proprietary data. At least you would work with co-pilots
