Right, and often the tested depth isnt maximum. So you slowly acclimate to worse and worse code practices if the effort needed to undo it is the same as doing. | ||

> if the effort needed to undo it is the same as doing. That’s the rub, yes - as long as your failures are nice and gradual and proportional to the changes you’re making, everything’s fine. | ||

sure, but undo isn't the only path to a newer better version of the code it's easy to see how the product (claude code) could be abstracted to spec form and then a future version built from that without inheriting previous iterations tech debt | ||
