The fart sniffers are there to prevent your pull request from being accepted because they have nothing better to do. They exist because they are promoted so your manager, that contributes nothing, can point to them as a "team player".

I swear to God. Corporate code would literally work better if we auto accepted every pull request and just had a single meeting each month to decide if we should revert back to last month and try again or accept our current state as "better".

Fuck waterfall, Fuck agile. Just go with the "was it worth it?" monthly review method.

Did we create more problems than we solved? Like, I feel like the Windows search function wouldn't have passed this review and we wouldn't get 0 results for the "uninstall" search string and start suggesting Bing results if this minimal method of rational discussion existed at a higher level.
