As a designer and sometime front-end developer, I find that writing code can be at odds with taking a user-centric point of view. I've often been tempted to re-use a view simply because I didn't want to maintain two different versions that were almost the same... surely the user wouldn't notice a difference. I also am less likely to start over when I have a better UI idea if I've already committed the first approach to git.
