Disagree with "Don't teach during code reviews."

I've found them to be invaluable opportunities for knowledge exchange




Yes, some of my most valuable programming education came from code reviews.

But...this article isn't about not teaching. It's about not trying to be coy, hinting that the code needs some unspecified change.

Absolutely do tell me how my code is flawed, and how it could be better. This is what I would call teaching.
