Amen! My last three companies were moving from a monolith to microservices. In every case, the rationale for the move was little more than "monolith development is slow, therefore microservices". Unfortunately for all…

It's an issue with the responsive layout. If the window is wide enough the overlap goes away; narrow enough the TOC goes away.

Yikes! Demanding a bug fix also remediate unrelated, extant style violations is a good way to ensure nothing improves.
I think the author and many folks here have an unhelpful understanding of code reviews. I suggest code reviews' primary purpose should not be to catch bugs or trivial style issues; automated tests and linters exist for…
