No. Not even close. Most tech decisions are reversible (we even have term for it - technical debt), which lowers risk and means we don't need to avoid decisions. We have tools that mean we don't need to make repetitive decisions about a lot of things (linters, code formatters, codemods, etc) - once we've decided the tooling keeps everything nice and tidy so we don't have to question our decisions. We have it so much better than most people.

Precisely - the reversability makes a huge difference. Just make sure you use version control.
