Boolean flag is also a design that doesn't scale to multiple decisions. You should get used to designing things in a way that separates those concerns. Why does page A need functionality in this manner and page B needs a slightly diffe

College doesn't teach you how to learn. There's no course on memory or forgetting curves that is mandatory. Nobody taught me flashcard software. I only got a bit about skimming and note taking from my high school teachers
