I get your sentiment but a lot of people on this forum forget that a lot of us are just working for the paycheck - I don't owe my company anything.
Do I know the code base like the back of my hand? Nope. Can I confidently talk to how certain functions work? Not a chance.
Can I deploy what the business wants? Yep. Can I throw error logs into LLMs and work out the cause of issues? Mostly.
I get some of you may want to go above and beyond for your company and truly create something beautiful but then guess what - That codebase is theirs. They aren't your family. Get paid and move on
Do you work as a consultant then? I've been with the same employer for a long time, so if my team creates a mess, I get to look at it daily.
