Lazy devs not removing old non functional commented code and background code additions ?
Though I do get it if they don't want to remove the old code if their employer is an asshole
That's not why. It's the dependency trees that run a dozen layers deep and end up importing "isEven". If you're building a react app odds are good you'll import way more code than you ever write yourself.
And no one should be leaving commented-out code in their app, that's what source control is for.
