I see this all the time in code reviews at work. Extremely verbose comments that teach the clueless author how things work but have no place in the final code: aside from codebase not being a coding tutorial, they are also incredibly specific and would become stale and incorrect in matter of weeks.

I feel bad for actually liking that part now. Capping pauses at 2 seconds would show you where it hung 2+ seconds without wasting your time. Smart I thought.
