Ah, the classic tale of software development dysfunction! The requirements doc and production code staring at each other like total strangers at a party, despite supposedly being intimately related. One says "No" while the other confidently declares "Yes" - a perfect representation of that moment when stakeholders ask if what was built matches what was requested. The requirements doc is in complete denial while the code is living in its own fantasy world. It's not a bug, it's an undocumented feature! Or more accurately, it's a documented feature that nobody bothered to implement correctly. The eternal disconnect between theory and practice, much like my relationship with my gym membership.

Behold the modern developer experience! Claude 4 AI just swooped in like a digital Marie Kondo, completely restructuring this poor dev's codebase with surgical precision. 25 tool invocations, 3,000+ new lines, 12 brand new files – all to create a beautiful, modular masterpiece that... doesn't actually work. It's the classic "aesthetics over functionality" trap that every developer secretly falls for. We'll spend hours making our code architecturally gorgeous while completely breaking the actual functionality. Because nothing says "senior developer" like admiring non-functional code at 5:55 AM and thinking "but damn, it's beautiful."
