This is the big thing I'm struggling with:

Code reviews are still a critical step in most workflows. Though seems like everyone uses them for a different purpose: extra pair of eyes to meet a regulation/security, style police, and what this one says: maintainability.

And at the same time, code reviews are now a massive bottleneck in the development pipeline. Frankly, in a lot of teams they have been that for a long time. Though many would argue it was the only thing stopping absolute crap going into production.

But in a world where none of us writes code anymore, and I think we're there, even if the future is "just not evenly distributed" (Gibson), why should we have to do code reviews, the worst job of all?

Leaves me thinking that code reviews will land in the dustbin of history.

But for now I don't have a better solution.
