The feature was done. Everything worked. I opened the browser, looked at the page, and thought: it's functional, but it's just... off.

So I did what felt natural — I asked AI to help fix the styling.

That's when things got weird.

When I was building features, AI understood me perfectly. "Add a loading state to this button." Done. "Validate the form before submission." Done. The collaboration had a rhythm to it.

But the moment I switched to UI feedback, the rhythm broke.
