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.
