How many people need to say "I don't see it" for someone to draw a big ass red circle covering 1/3 of the image?

I'm scared to remove the circle. Maybe it's needed to keep the other parts in place
I think it's for Juan
It's there because an important customer 15 years ago had a phobia of front doors, so this patch was implemented to make it easier to access the window after climbing the drain pipe.
This would be funnier without the literal text explanation and giant red circle
But, how will I repost the pic on social media without having to explain the coding joke :)
I don't know what they're for... but I'm scared to delete them.
This is why I love test coverage and metrics (though there's always the chance jimbob from accounting calls it once or twice a year).
'upperBalcony' is assigned a value but never used
Ok but still, what if
That's where the mini split unit goes, lol. See the vent above it? For the pipes and wires.
Mini split is currently in the backlog. It will be closed as "not planned" three years from now.
It's load bearing
Ah yes, Chesterton’s Balcony
I wish this comment had more upvotes.
In the matter of reforming things, as distinct from deforming them, there is one plain and simple principle; a principle which will probably be called a paradox. There exists in such a case a certain institution or law; let us say, for the sake of simplicity, a fence or gate erected across a road. The more modern type of reformer goes gaily up to it and says, "I don't see the use of this; let us clear it away." To which the more intelligent type of reformer will do well to answer: "If you don't see the use of it, I certainly won't let you clear it away. Go away and think. Then, when you can come back and tell me that you do see the use of it, I may allow you to destroy it.
However it is a one sided approach. Sometimes there must also be an answer to "If you don't see the use of keeping it, I won't let you", e.g. radical mastectomy, conservatism.
Somehow, it cantilevers the whole second floor.
This piece of code used to be for Juan. Now Juan is gone
Thats for birds... and cats
