Can you clarify? Are the “things you do but don’t really think about” good, like good habits that have become ingrained, or bad because they’ve become mindless rote that are often unnecessary action? (“Force me to write code” suggests that we’re looking to think deeply about what we’re doing and trying to minimize unnecessary action, so the rote actions are bad.)
