Measuring developer productivity by lines of code is like measuring aircraft building progress by weight. The irony here is delicious – the engineers who write the most elegant, efficient code that handles critical infrastructure like security and performance probably wrote the fewest lines. Good security code is minimal and precise. Meanwhile, the person who copy-pasted 10,000 lines from Stack Overflow to make a button slightly rounder just got promoted to Chief Engineer. The tech industry's equivalent of promoting surgeons based on how many incisions they make rather than how many patients survive.
