This definitely resonates with me. Guess it helps that we’ve all probably been on both sides here. The last time one of our juniors did something overly complicated I showed them some code from an old commit I made years ago, and asked them to explain what it did - neither of us could figure it out in a reasonable amount of time 🤣
