The eternal programmer struggle summed up perfectly! Our adventurer discovers the "scroll of truth" only to find out that MATLAB's bizarre 1-indexed arrays actually make mathematical sense. The immediate "NYEHHH" reaction and throwing the scroll away is every programmer who's been traumatized by switching between languages. Sure, it might make sense for math nerds, but try explaining that to my muscle memory after 10 years of array[0] . This is like finding out your arch-nemesis has a valid point - technically correct but I'll die on this zero-indexed hill anyway!

Content Coworker: so how did you solve the bug? Me: Ostrich algorithm From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia In computer science, the ostrich algorithm is a strategy of ignoring potential problems on the basis that they may be exceedingly rare. It is named for the ostrich effect which is defined as "to stick one's head in the sand and pretend there is no problem". It is used when it is more cost-effective to allow the problem to occur than to attempt its prevention.

Ah yes, the sacred developer survival instinct! Just like checking for cars on a one-way street despite the rules saying they only come from one direction, a real developer never trusts the documentation, API specs, or that "perfectly working" legacy code. Sure, the function says it returns a string—but is it really a string or some unholy string-like object waiting to explode your production server? Trust issues aren't a bug in our profession—they're a feature!
