In my experience engineers usually want to remove the outdated flags but product does not prioritize that work.

I have found it very professionally unsatisfying to have a clear and documented reason I was unable to code up to my own standards. It doesn’t help of it’s somebody’s fault or everybody’s fault instead of just mine. It might actually be more upsetting, but I’d have to reflect more on that.

At the end of the day it’s still fuckery I was unable to avoid.

We had an experience where it was product that pushed for cleaning up the flags.

The best companies I've been at where those where product and engineering really operate as one team.
