When you discover that fixing a tiny bug means jumping through an obstacle course of spaghetti code, dependency hell, and technical debt... suddenly a complete rewrite seems like the only rational option! It's like trying to remove one Jenga piece but realizing the entire tower is held together by hopes, prayers, and that one intern's commented-out code from 2017. The "Parkour!" reference perfectly captures that mental gymnastics of justifying why touching this cursed codebase any further would be professional malpractice.
