Yes. Knowing how the language is transformed into running code helps your mental model for simulating the process as thoughts.

You still have to read and validate the code that an LLM emits, and some code will be faster for you to type than it is to prompt,wait,correct,test,adapt etc. It may even help in describing the problem to the LLM, as knowledge of the appropriate language terms will guide the context along the right lines.

And it's also fulfilling to design programming languages, whether general purpose or DSLs, at least in my opinion.
