I know the code...when I write it. But 2 weeks later all the context is gone, and that's just _for me_. For my colleagues who also have to be in that code, they don't even start with context.
I mean do what works for you, but understand the bulk of the work that this applies to is for >1 person shops with code bases too big to fit in ones head at all, much less for more than a day or so.
