See? So nobody actually knows what the code really does, and everytime
somebody changes something there, they possibly have a slightly different
understanding of the purpose, resulting in even bigger mess. That's yet
another advantage of documentation - even you yourself are reminded of what
the code is supposed to do, and everybody touching such code is less likely
to run into a different direction.
