I'd rather be paid money to write code/do technical work instead of getting into bikeshedding fights with opinionated members of other teams. There's plenty of tickets I put off doing because I know it will be hard to feel like I'm making progress, or frustrating to navigate the social component of. Sure, maybe if I approached my work totally dead inside and with no expectation of enjoying it or caring about anyone else I worked with, I could probably just mechanically go down the list of tasks, but I suspect that would also cause me a lot of other mental problems on the way.
