You really dont get it. You cant understand how it really works.

Most probably I am one of the contributor, and my work depends on the
knowledge I got from studying the code. If you constantly change it, my
knowledge is reduced to useless bits.

Clearly you have to understand how _other_ people work, not assume
everybody is as smart as you are.
