I'd hate to be the PhD student that wastes away half a dozen years of his/her life writing a document on how to sneak buggy code through a code review.

More than being pointless and boring, it's a total CV black hole. It's the worst of both worlds: zero professional experience to show for, and zero academic portfolio to show for.
