Try working on a codebase that's all event-driven hexagonal CQRS with hand-crafted SQL for persistence. Add additional buzzwordy methodologies to taste.

Adding a single property to your product means you now have to update an aggregate class, several DTOs, and several event classes and handlers before you can even think about touching the UI.

And that's in your main solution. There's also at least one facade service you'll need to make compatible and you also need to update the event simulator used for testing. The latter night involve having to touch every single line in a 2000 lines long SQL script.

Having to go though three separate 600-2000 LOC PRs for one PBI isn't that exotic.
