How dare I polish and remove kludges from previous releases. 😆

Also, none of those kludges would have even been necessary if the project scope was properly defined from the start and the project manager didn't let the users keep trickling in new requirements without also extending the deadline.

So yeah, how dare I go back and implement something the way it should have been done the first time?

Imagine a restaurant that doesn’t ask you what you want. Instead the chef tells you “This is the best food possible” and just makes what they want.

that is exactly how restaurants work. have you ever been to one? you are offered a choice of meals they designed and if you don't like it, well, there is about billion other restaurants you may try, they are not going to start crafting custom meal for you.
