True. Code reviews and standards are the tools to use in this case.

I've found that code reviews are one of the best ways to increase code quality. Even just talking with other developers about why they've done things is helpful in thinking about simpler options and keeping things closer to the architectural vision.

Just questioning the implementation is enough to improve quality. Plus it helps people grow without putting them on the spot (if done right).
