for that first iteration of the code, simple don't mean shortcut:

simple != easy
simple != hacky
simple != rushed
simple != poorly written

even the first cut, MVP, needs to be changeable, testable, clear, expressive, etc

#TDD #technicalDebt #refactoring
the "make it work" part (K.Beck) always gets mistaken to mean, hack at the code, squeeze, force-fit, finagle, the easiest and quickest thing that'll get the managers, customers, users off our back.

but we just end up on the wrong side of karma

2/3
it just adds high interest technical debt, and need to refactor out:

- initial understanding, with deeper insight into the feature
- tightly coupled, low cohesion, incoherent, viscous, rigid, fragile, immobile code
