Ha, you remember 15 year old bugs? I’ve “fixed” bugs that were deliberate decisions because the fix was worse then the bug - so I’ve then unfixed the bug and said “7 years ago xmunk, that was really quite a good decision… SO Y U NO COMMENT!” Of course, since I’ve fixed the same fix twice it’s now burned into my memory so there’s no reason to leave a comment at this point.
There’s been a few times where I had to look into an issue and found a comment I wrote much earlier with a ticket number or link to a previous ticket that explains exactly why this new issue is actually the intended behavior.
It’s really helpful when the product owners clearly can’t make up their minds about what they want their apps to do.
