You've got the overeager junior dev trying to impress management with massive features, the manager eating it up like it's the next unicorn startup, and the senior dev slowly drowning in existential dread knowing they'll be the one debugging this mess at 2 AM. Meanwhile, underwater where nobody's watching, some software architect is passionately explaining why their elaborate unit test framework is the answer to world peace. Nobody asked, nobody's listening, but they're down there living their best life anyway. The title says it all: sometimes you just want people to do the simple thing instead of overcomplicating everything. But here we are, building enterprise-grade solutions for problems that don't exist while the actual codebase is held together with duct tape and prayer.
