Except if your adhd includes the perfectionist trait, because then you will never get to write the next line of code.
and how you could test it easily! it's incredible how much it helps for cleaner architectures
This is actually a pro tip.
I don't find this helps. More often your assumptions about how something might change are wrong and when the actual change comes in you can end up causing yourself more work undoing the abstractions you made. IMO keep things simple as you can for as long as you can and add in abstractions when they are needed and remove them when they are not. Write code that is easy to change when change is needed, not code that tries to account for all possible future changes as this is impossible to do.
