> what is the best calculation to make when trading off code quality vs features? In my opinion it's: code quality = "How long are we going to need this feature" * "How much money are we getting from people who use this" * "Cognitive load added by the feature to the whole project" V1 projects don't bring big profits, can be shut down any time and their codebase is relatively simple. I'd keep the code quality low until some of these factors begin to change.
