// TODO
What happens
- A tiny sprout grows next to a sign that says "//TODO REMOVE". A developer walks past it.
- Later he comes back and starts to pull it, looking determined.
- He pulls with everything he has and falls forward; behind him the ground cracks open along the roots.
- He walks off whistling with a single leaf. The ground has split open over a huge root system, bugs are living in it, and the sign now reads "REMOVE" crossed out, "CLEANUP".
Why it lands
Everyone has met this TODO: a small shortcut that other code grew around until removing it meant digging up half the system. The quiet edit on the sign, from REMOVE to CLEANUP, is the most honest part.
