  When a company measures developer productivity in code added and feature delivered, it creates a perverse incentive that attracts people that really love to write a lot of code and building mountains out of molehills. The best engineer (and not only, see that famous quote by Kurt von Hammerstein-Equord) often is the lazy one. It was a known notion that somehow disappeared around the turn of the millennium.
