Depends what the gap is. Small gaps (QA person is sick today, so can someone test...) I would just fill them if they are not happening all the time.
- malfist 4y agoAgree with this. Pain points are cleavage. Let them be felt, then leverage them into making your improvements known. I so often see junior engineers making work for themselves by "fixing" things that weren't broken. This is often the case when they want to refactor something to make it better. If you can't measure the improvement, it's hard to make the case you actually improved things. Legacy code is like settled law, touched only when absolutely necessary.
