i forgot the most important part, this helps makes the decision of when to actually commit to making the change. instead of setting aside bandwidth to address debt just on principle, you can make a reasoned argument that says 'new feature y would fall out naturally if we reworked x, and is going to be a disaster if we don't, so maybe we probably should'
