And the latest commit is "shifted all indentation per linter" by someone who didn't write the code. Viewing the history of a file is vastly more a pain in the ass to a useful "why" comment.

It's also easy to skip them. > Useful "Why" comments "Why" comments are not so useful to me, I guess that is the point. The add noise in the code that can be moved elsewhere. Consider that I'm not talking about specific implementation choices comments, like # using heapsort instead of quicksort # because we care about the worst case heapsort(data) which is perfectly fine to be in the code, I'm talking about "why" details that may be not present in the Jira/Whatever issue because they are related to e.g. why a bug raised up from a technical point of view.
