Technical debt, like all forms of debt, can be used for leverage.

I feel like it is important to manage the risk and to clearly manage this debt. personally I try to stay safe from both debt and technical debt until there are sound reasons for both.

It is KISS stack for me personally (Keep it stupid simple)

I would still consider technical debt to be different than other forms of debt though, It feels way more of a tradeoff to me but perhaps all debt can be classified as such. Either way I think it makes for an interesting decision nonetheless.
