FAQ-000368 - Code Quality vs Security Vulnerabilities / Unused and Obsolete Code Management

Incomplete code in production packages must be completely removed rather than commented out. Commenting it out isn't sufficient, as it can still pose risks or cause confusion. Remove unused or incomplete components entirely to ensure code quality and security.

The original answer was clear and accurate but used unnecessarily verbose phrasing that could be streamlined without losing meaning. Changed 'It's best to remove' to the more direct 'Remove' to follow the brand guidelines of being concise and direct. The content about removing incomplete code is correct and aligns with general code quality best practices. No security rules were selected because this FAQ addresses general code quality practices rather than specific security vulnerabilities that would be caught by security scanners. The available rules focus on specific security issues like SOQL injection, XSS, CRUD violations, etc., while this FAQ discusses general development hygiene of removing incomplete code, which is more of a code quality concern than a specific security vulnerability pattern.
