True, if you have a codebase that works in practice but has dozens of loose ends and poorly defined edge cases than it can chase off into rabbit holes because "oh wait, what if x is undefined instead of null? How is y defined? This outdated package has long known severe security holes and should not be used anymore, do we actually need it?".
