Point taken.

Do tools such as Crap4j exist for other platforms? It measures the amount of CRAP (Change Risk Analysis and Predictions) in your code. Cyclomatic complexity is one of its big measures for determining CRAP. What's nice about having a tool is there are no arguments. The first step on a pull request is determining whether the code is CRAP!

Most organizations quickly outgrow the need for such a tool, but yours might be one that would benefit. You'd be amazed at how objective social pressure works on a dev team, though beware, you may have problems if your team's Primadona consistently produces CRAP code!
