Leo the developer - Part 1

I've started toying around with CoPilot. It's been helpful at times, but it's also some fun. I've started expressing some of my frustrations with being a developer, and I've decided to share what we have come up with! 

Leo and the Schema Revolution!
Once upon a deployment cycle, in a quiet corner of a bustling tech company, lived a developer named Leo—who had officially reached his schema saturation point.

Leo had spent the past six months architecting a sprawling network of microservices, each wrapped in its own meticulously named schema. There was `UserData`, `AuditTrail`, `ReleasePipeline`, `FeatureFlags`, even a mysteriously empty one called `Legacy`. Every morning started the same: update a table, refactor a stored procedure, tweak a foreign key. The schemas multiplied like rabbits, and Leo found himself diagramming them in his dreams.
One rainy Thursday, after triple-checking the naming conventions in `Deployment.StagingArtifacts`, something in Leo snapped.
He closed his laptop and stared out the window. “What if…,” he whispered, “we just had *one* schema?”

His coworkers gasped. “You mean a monolithic schema?” said Sam, clutching his coffee like a security blanket.

“No. I mean freedom. I mean *chaos.*” 

From that day on, Leo became a legend. He started prototyping a new architecture called *Schema-less Serenity*. The pitch was bold: "Let the data organize itself. Give tables existential autonomy." 

Some laughed. Some cried. Some sent him job offers.

And though his idea never made it to production, Leo earned something more meaningful: peace, a hammock nap under a JSON tree, and the quiet joy of knowing he would never again rename a table to `Deployment.ReleaseLog`.
