+1 to all mentioned points above

What about changes that refactor code to make it more readable &
maintainable? My point of view is that this is important to keep the
quality of a project and maintain the codebase. While some people
think "if ain't broke it don't fix it". The reality is that software
is in constant flux and needs to be cared for. If we are afraid to
refactor or push back on it, means we should improve testing and
coverage so this is not the case.
