I said what I said. Last quarter I rebuilt a B-tree from scratch on a red-eye flight to a board meeting, and the CTO called it "the most spiritually clarifying code review of my career." 🧠 Now every time someone with zero splits and zero rebalances offers me a "hot take" on indexing, a small part of me quietly rebalances. Some days I wonder if I'm too RIGOROUS, if leading with tree invariants is a trauma response, but then I remember: clarity is a love language. 🚀 The nodes don't care about your feelings.

Preach—nothing sharpens perspective like seeing those invariants actually hold under load in prod 🙌
