Bingo. Design for incompetence. There are few codebases in this world that don't need incompetent people to contribute to them. (This is typically driven by business incentives)

If you get to work on one of those codebases ... good for you. The rest of us are just trying to gatekeep piles of shit from getting in while being pushed by management to open the flood gates.

Everyone is stupid at 3am when the on call alert goes off and a critical service is down.

Write code and design systems so 3am you can fix them!
