That's a really good point. There are types of people (like ones who are really anal about following QA/release processes, folks who are insanely paranoid about security), that I've found to be really unpleasant to interact with, but with time, I've come to realize them being exactly like this is what allows me to sleep soundly at night.

No, it doesn't have anything to do with code quality. It will block me from things I'm trying to do for "moral" not technical reasons.

It has to be in spite of because things that I don't like are bad.
