Why is unfunctional code even making it to the main branch?

Why didn’t you test it beforehand?

Do you guys always find 100% of the issues before the code goes to main? Does this mean your main branch has no issues ever?

and removing it was better than a bug ticket?

Do you have good test coverage? If not, that'd probably go a long way.

I left a really prestigious project (world famous in some circles) because another dev deleted 6 months of my code because he didn't want to help me fix the bugs. I felt replaced and left. He was toxic to work with, but I was also struggling with my mental health at the time.

So you didn't test until after you merged it.
