On the other side of the spectrum - code reviews have never, not even one single time, given me any real opportunity to learn something of value. They have only ever been someone else shoving their preferences onto my coding style (for better or worse)

I was shocked at my first job to realize the code reviewer didn’t even read my code, merely glanced over and demanded style changes (which were not consistent from review to review in the slightest)

It really felt more like how you hand your advisor your thesis with obvious easy to fix errors so he doesn’t compulsively decide “well something must need improvement” and make you fix something difficult

From your multiple comments on threads it seems like your ego is strongly attached to your code - if you truly never, not even one time, derived value from a code review, either you always choose to work in toxic environment/s or you're not willing to accept feedback or defend your "coding style" well enough to align colleagues with your opinion. I desperately miss code review feedback at this point in my career after excellent engineers made me question my strong beliefs and empathise with theirs helped me build my path.
