Everything on Code Quality

Code review is primarily about validating design intent and maintainability, not just catching bugs. AI cannot fully replace human judgment in assessing subjective code quality and architectural alignment.

Impact: Refocuses review processes on high-value design decisions, improving long-term codebase sustainability and reducing technical debt.

Embedding business logic within domain entities (Rich Domain Model) prevents the anemic model anti-pattern, where logic is stripped from data objects and placed in external services. This makes the codebase more intuitive and easier to refactor.

Impact: Improves code readability and reduces the time required to understand and modify complex business rules.
