System Design
Why is catching a bug immediately after introducing a new feature cheaper than discovering it much later in the round?
A
There's no real difference in cost either way
B
A bug caught right after its introduction is isolated to the most recent, small change, while one discovered later may be buried under many subsequent changes, making it much harder to isolate and fix under time pressure
C
Bugs found later are always easier to fix because more context has been built up
D
This only matters for algorithm interviews, not machine coding
