   > @wmh1108-sas , I respectfully disagree with the characterization of this 
as clutter. The rationale for including detailed context is to streamline the 
review process and reduce dependency on follow-up communication. This approach 
is aligned with best practices in documentation and change management. While it 
may seem extensive, it serves a strategic purpose in ensuring clarity and 
accountability.
   
   Including context can indeed help the review process. This can be achieved 
by putting the context in the PR (commit message, PR description, review 
comments). Keeping such context in the code is distracting: future readers 
should not be bothered with information about how the code 'used to be', only 
how it 'is right no'. If they need to find out what the code looked like 
earlier, which should be rare, can be done by looking at the history and PR.
