  • Not GP, but reading gnarly code and making definitive statements about who/what/when/where/why such that your documentation is accurate, especially in a corpo context where there are not clear boundaries of responsibility, requires quite a bit of brain power. Not to mention the ever increasing entropy in systems driven by profit means that whatever you write in terms of documentation will have a pretty short shelf-life. The code might stick around as an unholy amalgamation of copypasta after a refactor or two.
