I would add context is key to some forms of code. Yea some things may be sloppy, but they also may have been added at 3 am during an incident. While hopefully these gets cleaned up, sometimes they get forgotten or de-prioritized. Even the best devs can write bad code, so always remember what could of been. It helps, I’ve found, in having empathy for other people’s code
