The eternal dilemma of function design perfectly illustrated on an IQ bell curve. The low-IQ crowd (0.1%) and high-IQ geniuses (0.1%) agree: "Just add a new function." Meanwhile, the average devs (34%) in the middle are sweating bullets, desperately clinging to their sacred principle of code reuse: "NO WE SHOULD ADD ANOTHER PARAMETER AND REUSE CODE!" It's the horseshoe theory of programming - both extremes of the intelligence spectrum somehow reach the same conclusion while the "well-actually" crowd in the middle is busy creating those monstrous functions with 17 optional parameters, 9 of which are booleans. And they wonder why nobody wants to maintain their code...

THE PLOT TWIST OF THE CENTURY! Turns out ChatGPT, the supposedly sophisticated AI that's been helping us debug code and write functions, is just Clippy with a glow-up and better PR. That annoying paperclip from Microsoft Office who used to pop up asking "It looks like you're writing a letter, need help?" has evolved into an AI chatbot that now asks "It looks like you're writing buggy code, let me rewrite your entire codebase." Same energy, different decade. The transformation is complete, and honestly? We've been bamboozled by a sentient office supply this whole time.
