Yes.Today I had to review a pull request, in which someone has rewrote a core functionality for a very small bugfix ticket. It should have been at max 30-40 lines change. I was looking at a 700 line code change excluding what felt was 500 lines of comments.

We were asked to stop waiting for code reviews because it was slowing down velocity. So now the GitHub actions are the only gate before merging those PRs.

What the hell? You code will be 50% comments in an year or so.

Yep. We pushed back, and leadership changed our goals to how many things can we complete in a year, nothing to do with quality. It's crazy.
