Fourteen pull requests before coffee
Your dependency bot opened 14 pull requests overnight. Version bumps everywhere: a patch here, a minor there, one thing that looks like it might be a rewrite. Sprint planning is in twenty minutes.
You cannot read fourteen changelogs before standup. You can barely read one. So you do what most people do: you skim the titles, you merge the ones that look boring, and you leave a tab open for the one that doesn't. That tab usually stays open for a week.
The problem isn't that you're lazy. It's that the list is sorted by date, and date tells you nothing about whether a release changed something you need to react to.
Recency is not impact
