Every dev has said it: "It's so intuitive, why waste time documenting it?" Fast forward six months, and you're staring at your own code like it's hieroglyphics written by a caffeinated squirrel. That tea bag floating in water is the perfect metaphor - what seems crystal clear to you now becomes a murky, unidentifiable mess for the poor soul (probably future you) who has to figure out what the hell you were thinking. Documentation isn't for today's genius you; it's for tomorrow's confused you who just wants to go home.
