Delete More Than You Add

The best commit is sometimes red.
Lines removed. Nothing broken.

Code you delete can't have bugs.
Code you delete can't confuse anyone.
Code you delete never needs maintaining.

Adding feels like building.
Removing feels like risk.

But every codebase that survived
was pruned, not just grown.

Subtraction is a feature.
Use it more.
