In freelancing your job is not to be a hero, but to attract blame and lose arguments swiftly and strategically.
Customer service, you know?
People problems > technical problems. This is an axiom. Your
tools don’t resolve people problems, only technical problems.

Users are psychologically primed to hate vertical scrollbars, but what happens when you remove them?
