The action item isn't easy if everyone has to individually remember it going forward. An easy action item would be to add a lint rule to prevent the X function from getting checked in, even if the author never heard of this rule before.

Well, I guess your options are:
* Trying to figure out a way to improve processes at your current job. (There might be a way that isn't or doesn't feel like "pushing hard". OR, your current job might just be completely uninterested and this is never going to happen).
* Finding a new job. (The job market is as good for software engineers right now as it ever has been for anyone ever, pretty much)
* Deciding to live with it
So given that, I don't feel very comfortable pushing hard for any process changes. I already feel like I'm bordering on annoying.
