Robert Clapp(@RobertClapp):developer workflows fail silently, with no log, no error when teams stack abstractions over routine tasks, so engineers debug internal pipelines instead of shipping product. wrapper bleed. custom wrapper scripts swallow upstream failures, and builds fail with no trace back to the actual change. gate rupture. redundant validation steps desync from main, so clean commits stall waiting on broken harness checks. internal tooling without explicit removal criteria just converts shipping velocity into invisible maintenance.
