All code is not created equal. In a project there is normally some divide between shared code and service specific code. This divide can be as simple as a base class and its children or a library and the microservices that use it. I declare that shared code is sacred and should only be touched for a good reason. (Note: sacred does not imply good)

So when reviewing my carelevel is highly dependent on if shared code is touched. If the commit only contains changes in the leafs eg subclass / single microservice my gut instinct is to trust the code and go into LGTM mode (if it goes wrong it's at least localized). But if shared code is touched I don't trust it, I deep dive and complain about everything I can think of.
