It certainly all "depends". My main point is, that if you don't actively plan in to fix your TODOs, then they usually won't be fixed, which you can also kind of see in a lot of the charts where the amount of TODOs just goes up. And as such the question arises whether you really gain anything from them. I much rather have someone finalize their implementation and create follow up stories/tasks to indicate what needs to be done next, than having hints of what should've/could've been done and nobody ever going back and cleaning those up.
