Spending days figuring out a few boring lines of change that has an outsized impact would, imho, be a fairly compelling bit of code to show off. IMHO while he might be crazy and way out of line, he's effectively asking people to reinterview for their jobs, except instead of doing blind code tests he's asking them to show off the best work they've done recently.

Nothing really had any outsized impact in the last 12 months of the project imho. Once the minimum viable product was done, every bit of improvement i did was either simplifying, performance-related or adding more configurability (and test, and documentation). I did a piece of code that adapted to the ES request that i really like and could be showed off, but it took me three weeks, but 90% of what i parametrized could be hardcoded and it would have changed nothing in the long run.
