When Bugs Turn Into Features

The classic developer move: can't fix the bug? Just slap a "working as intended" label on it and ship it as a feature. The transformation from panic-inducing water leak to elegant fountain is basically every sprint retrospective where the PM asks "so about that weird behavior..." and you confidently respond "oh that? That's the new dynamic user experience enhancement we implemented." The real skill isn't writing bug-free code—it's the ability to rebrand your mistakes with enough confidence that stakeholders actually thank you for them. Bonus points if you can get it into the release notes as an "innovative functionality."
