There is a big problem in knowing when to measure and what to measure. For example, today my work looks to have similar value to the work of my dog Mr. Biscuits, yet I cost 10x. However, move to tomorrow and it turns out that Mr. Biscuits' code has locked up the cluster and Q3 results are gone. Suddenly I look cheap (I am cheap, but that's a different thing). Also there is zero agreement on what is good; maintainability, robustness, ease of use -> all subjective at the minute.
