@GrahamDowns @jk eh
IME the former = an hour to fix, an hour to notice I missed something then a few minutes to find the copypasta that wasn't fixed. Maybe an hour or two if I feel like refactoring it into a function/class/whatever.
The abstract mess is hour(s) to find the part to change. Changing it, then hours more figuring out why it broke in some weird illogical way instead of fixing the problem.
@beeoproblem @jk I've had cases where it was months to find the other parts I missed. After the next release. When it was in the hands of a client, and caused a show-stopping bug for them. Because the dev who fixed it didn't know (or had long since forgotten) about the other three.
It happens. :/
