AI drops the cost of doing things right to near-zero. Stop picking the quick hack when the thorough option takes the same wall-clock time with AI assistance.
## The Rating Scale
Every option gets a Thoroughness score (T:X/10):
| Score | What It Means |
|-------|---------------|
| T:10 | All edge cases handled, full test coverage, docs updated, error messages helpful |
| T:9 | Edge cases covered, tests pass, types solid, no shortcuts |
| T:8 | Happy path + error paths, good tests, clean types |
| T:7 | Happy path works, basic tests, no docs |
| T:5 | Works for the demo, fragile, manual testing only |
| T:3 | Quick hack, no tests, tech debt accruing |
| T:1 | Copy-paste from Stack Overflow, untested, hope it works |
