You know that feeling when you refactor a single variable name and suddenly Git thinks you've rewritten the entire codebase? Yeah, 34 files changed because you decided to update some import paths or tweak a shared constant. Smooth sailing, quick review, merge it and move on.

But then there's that OTHER pull request. The one where you fix a critical bug by changing literally two lines of actual logic. Maybe you added a null check or fixed an off-by-one error. And suddenly your PR has 12 comments dissecting your life choices, questioning your understanding of computer science fundamentals, and suggesting you read a 400-page book on design patterns before touching production code again.

The code review gods have a twisted sense of humor. Large diffs? "LGTM." Small, surgical changes? Time for a philosophical debate about whether your variable should be called isValid or valid.
