How long before we stop reading the code?

Code reviews are becoming less effective due to increasing complexity and codebases. To improve efficiency, shift the focus from reviewing code to reviewing intent, specs, and plans. This approach allows for earlier identification of issues and reduces the need for lengthy code reviews. Engineers should prioritize reviewing design documents and acceptance criteria. This change can help teams stay on top of growing codebases.
