Code review makes you vulnerable to priority inversion. I need this change in now, to meet some deadline, but the reviewer has other priorities. Reviews pile up.<p>When this happens, a common response is to go work on something else, but this only exacerbates the problem: now you have a bunch of commits awaiting review which are dependent in various ways. If I merge this commit I have to go and fix up that one, and that other one. My work becomes quadratic, nursing a bunch of commits along while waiting their turn through a tiny review pipeline. 5% can be 100%.
