The eternal duality of code review: 10 lines? Time to channel your inner perfectionist and scrutinize every semicolon, variable name, and whitespace choice like you're defending your PhD thesis. 2000 lines? "LGTM" faster than you can say "technical debt."

Senior devs know that reviewing a massive PR properly would take hours, and honestly? Nobody has time for that. Plus, if it compiles and the tests pass (they do pass, right?), who are we to question the architectural decisions made in those 1,847 lines we definitely didn't read? The cognitive load of context-switching into a codebase the size of a novel is just... nah.

Meanwhile, that 10-line PR gets the full treatment because our brains can actually process it. "Why didn't you use a ternary here?" "This could be a one-liner." "Have you considered extracting this into a helper function?" We become code review warriors when the battlefield is manageable.
