Identify redundant abstractions by applying a five-lens audit framework to evaluate whether a proposed code part is truly necessary, ensuring all capabilities are preserved while ruthlessly reducing the total component count.

The best way to simplify an over-engineered design proposal is to evaluate it against a five-lens framework, identifying unnecessary classes and lifecycle hooks to merge fragmented parts into more cohesive, sophisticated components.

You need a structured framework to minimize component count during system design sessions or pull request feedback when complexity management is critical and there is a tendency to add unnecessary abstractions that increase maintenance burden.

Yes, you can challenge a new registry or base class during refactoring by auditing the design proposal to ensure existing language features or patterns are utilized instead of adding unnecessary abstractions that provide no additional value.

Adding more classes and lifecycle hooks increases maintenance burden because it introduces unnecessary abstractions and code structures that complicate the architecture without providing additional value or preserving system capabilities.

The primary limitation of removing parts during a code review is ensuring all capabilities are preserved; the five-lens audit framework must be strictly adhered to so that simplification does not break existing functionality.
