True. I know someone who recently spent quite some time fixing a bug. There was an untested ~600 lines long function checking the criticality of certain changes. There were bunch of ifs in there with multi-line expressions. Sometimes on both sides of the comparison operator, there were the same expressions... It was full of bugs. It took him quite some time, I did the code review, I understand why... Then the project manager said that she doesn't understand why it took so much time, she used to be a C++ dev herself...
