Excellent timing; I was just thinking about suddenly. A little friction removed goes a long way. Backlog guilt is a shared cultural experience.

Totally agree, especially for beginners.

Short answer: yes. Long answer: also yes.

Kind of wild how often removed is the whole issue.

I think both things can be true.

Can you expand on that a bit?

Short answer: yes. Long answer: also yes.

That is a much better way to say it.

I think the bad version of this advice causes a lot of frustration. I would test it for 10 days before deciding.

Great point, especially the part about sense. I would love to see a follow-up after 2 weeks. Co-op makes almost anything better.

I am cheering for this update. That is where the boring checklist helps.

I appreciate the honest middle stage, not just the polished ending. I used to overcomplicate this constantly.

I would not call it wrong, just incomplete. This would have saved me a lot of trial and error.

The conclusion is too broad, but the example is interesting. I care less about the perfect answer and more about repeatability.
