Hum... Your comment reads like "I have this very specific and subjective process that works for me; people that do things differently are too egocentric to notice their incompetence". Your colleagues may react badly to that style.

I believe (but I'm not sure) I do get what you re trying to say, but not every TODO reflects some eternal trade-off. Some are for real clear improvements (like the "there isn't any code here" into "the code was written" on my example) whose history won't add any value after they got done.
