And actually conversely makes it harder to keep updating, because you’ll need
to document every and all edge-cases, and then need to know when one of those
edge cases breaks, etc.
The core concept is documented, and it’s pretty straight-forward.
I’m sorry, but it’s as if he’s arguing for the sake of arguing. It’s starting
to feel very unproductive, and unnecessary.
