But if you were to be your code, how can one possibly criticize the code without criticizing you, or even fix a bug, or redesign it to be better?
Nobody wants to fix the "you" that is in the code, they don't want to redesign "you" to be better, they want to fix the code itself. This probably requires that you distance yourself from the code your produce, in order to let it go.

I agree: there needs to be separation. In a typical corporate environment with teams, I like to say the team own the code. It’s the teams responsibility after all.

Can this be done at all?
