== Motivation section: debt vs payment ==
 
The metaphor of technical debt is introduced, and then refactoring is cited as a payment of technical debt.
 
Is such a metaphor really helping the article? Doesn't this just say that fixing poorly-organized or poorly-planned code is better than not fixing it? (It doesn't take a genius to figure that out.) :)
I'm not sure why that part is kept. [[User:TooManyFingers|TooManyFingers]] ([[User talk:TooManyFingers|talk]]) 21:08, 8 July 2020 (UTC)
