Disagree. This how people best learn from each other. It's also nice to audit your own thought process objectively.

It makes one vulnerable though, that's for sure. Psychologically I mean.

Maybe the person reviewing your PR is too busy to also provide therapy for your internal thoughts while writing the code?
I cook my own commits 75% for me six months from now and 25% for everyone else. I'm literally only doing about 1/3 more work (on the therapy part) than I would have done anyway.
People barely read PRs at most places I've worked.

The only reason they'd go deeper is for a bisect, or some other analytical method.

At least one day I hope they level up to be able to do that.

It's a golden rule thing for me.

I like more information because it's easier to filter too much data, than to reconstruct destroyed information.

Whether you realize it or not, you're insisting all the neurodivergent people at your job unmask themselves, and fuck that noise.
I'm nuerodivergent, I dream of a world where not only can they unmask, but that normal folk will see the intricate chaotic beauty behind it.

Probably a pipe dream though.

But for sure I don't want to force it on people.

Don't use the feature if you don't want to, I'm all about freedom of choice.

Just saying the upside to it.
