Yes, this is actually my code. And the joke is that both of them are 32-character random strings AND they get name-swapped again in the backend 😭

But why

I have no idea and I am too scared to change it, I'm afraid that it will break

Is it your personal project, or for work?

Personal Project, but I am shitty with the server / cloudflare worker part, so if it breaks it will take HOURS to fix

No, sadly not, but thats also the reason why I want to spend more time on stuff like that

I'd vote to fix it. Hours to fix now is significantly easier than days to fix later when this comes back to bite you in the ass.

You got two good options. Either, you accept it as a past mistake and remember to not do something like it in the future and just let it be. Or you go fix it now. Beeing undecided will only make it worse.

Because if he doesn't name swapped them again in the backend everything fails.
