 AI demos are easy to hack. But once you move past the prototype stage, you’re stuck building and maintaining low-level plumbing code that slows down real innovation. For example:
 
 - **Routing & orchestration.** Frameworks handle routing and handoffs in tightly coupled ways, so if you want to plug in your own router, planner, or policy engine, you’re stuck with a heavy refactor or brittle overrides.
-- **Model integration churn.** Frameworks wire LLM integrations directly into code abstractions, making it hard to add or swap models without touching application code — meaning you’ll have to bounce your app every time you want to experiment with a new provider or version.
+- **Model integration churn.** Frameworks wire LLM integrations directly into code abstractions, making it hard to add or swap models without touching application code — meaning you’ll have to do codewide search/replace every time you want to experiment with a new model or version.
 - **Observability & governance.** Logging, tracing, and guardrails are baked in as tightly coupled features, so bringing in best-of-breed solutions is painful and often requires digging through the guts of a framework.
 - **Prompt engineering overhead**. Input validation, clarifying vague user input, and coercing outputs into the right schema all pile up, turning what should be design work into low-level plumbing work.
