  • TODO comments don't always need to be acted upon to be valuable.
  • A good TODO serves as a note about unhandled edge cases or suggestions for future improvements.
  • TODOs can provide context to future readers, helping them understand the original author's thought process.
  • Well-placed TODOs can prevent unnecessary refactoring by answering potential questions about the code's structure.
