Fair.

That said, we have a lot of awful code at my org, yet we also have time to fix it. Most of the crap came from the “move fast and break things” period, but now we have the room to push back a bit.

There’s obviously a balance, and as a lead, I’m looking for my devs to push back and make the case for why we need the extra time. If you convince me, I’ll back you up and push for it, and we’ll probably get the go-ahead. I’m not going to approve everything though because we can’t fix everything at once. But if you ignore the problems and trudge along anyway, I’ll be disappointed.
