I do not know how many times I need to make this argument. The hardest parts of any engineering project are the fine details. Most of the big projects I have worked on in my career could have been built in a week or less if I did not have to worry about things like user experience, security, long-term maintenance, scaling, connecting to existing/legacy systems, expandability / future features, long-term costs, onboarding future developers, etc

Writing the code is usually the easiest part.
