Yes. I think you may have misunderstood my meaning. Unless you’re just being pedantic—which I have no interest in.

Probably my misunderstanding. The way it is written it sounds like juniors use the dev env and seniors get their decisions implemented directly in prod.

What are “decisions” to you?

From what code to write, to what language to use, to how things will integrate.

Even high level architectural decisions need to be tested in dev first.

Basically I can't see what couldn't be run through dev first?

Just because code works in dev doesn’t mean it’s going to be the right thing for production. I caught that little bastard making 1000 db queries in a loop one time, instead of taking the time to make it efficient. Technically it worked. And, because dev has no server load, it was relatively quick.
