The universal law of programming nobody teaches in CS degrees: "If it works, don't touch it." That moment when your janky code with 17 nested if-statements and zero comments somehow passes all tests, and you back away from the keyboard like you're defusing a bomb.

Future you can deal with that technical debt... or better yet, whoever inherits your codebase after you've conveniently switched teams.

It's not abandonment—it's a strategic career advancement opportunity.
