The sacred rule of programming: when something works, leave it alone. But no, we just had to add that fancy animation and refactor that "ugly" but functional code. Now production's down, Slack is blowing up, and management wants to know why the site looks like it was hit by a digital tornado. Next time, maybe we'll remember that "working" trumps "pretty" every single time. The bike was fine until we decided it needed racing stripes and a bell.
