As an engineer, I am generally against feature flags.
They fracture your code base, are sometimes never removed, and add complexity and logic that at best is a boolean check and at worse is something more involved.
I'd love a world where engineers are given time to complete their feature in its entirety, and the feature is released when it is ready.
Sadly, we do not live in that world and hence: feature flags.
