Fair point: I was using the information in the article to form my opinion. I still think that, if the developer in question ignored a compiler error as described, that’s a serious competence issue. It’s harder to spot after the fact because any reviewers wouldn’t have had a chance to see the compiler output.

The article makes the fair point of the size of the change and the complete lack of information in the commit message, which should have set off alarm bells…
