Until I have to come in behind you after you’ve left for greener pastures and I have to figure out your bespoke framework and libraries.
Almost everything I work with has bugs, so chances are I'm going to run into one. It's a lot easier for me to fix bugs when there are fewer layers and more of them are written by me.
