In a one-liner competition, sure.

In my codebase? I'd pull a "let's linger after standup about your PR" and have the coder sweat through a 10 minute soapbox about nothing before laying down the law.

Yeah, the annoying thing is the people who I generally have found to be the worst about stuff like this are old school Senior C developers, who still program like it's 1987 and we have to fit everything into 4K of RAM.

Fortunately there's nothing like that in my code base, I just run into stuff like that periodically when I'm digging around in other team's server code looking for something.
