According to the novel American Gods it's a discreet way to dispose of the bodies.
No one expects them to be hidden in plain sight inside the klunker in the middle of the ice, no one's going to risk walking there and possibly drowning, and once it drops no one's going to dive to the bottom of the lake to find the skeletons in the old klunkers from previous years.
They don't program, therefore they're not programmers (and they'll probably never be again, since using LLMs has been proven to damage one's ability to reason and learn, probably permanently).
Vibe coders, maybe.
Victims of the LLM scam, definitely.
