When a developer enters lgtm mode, they stop critically reviewing code and start rubber-stamping everything with a thumbs-up. Maybe it's a Friday afternoon, maybe the PR queue is 40 deep, or maybe they just don't have the bandwidth to care — whatever the reason, every diff looks fine and every merge request gets waved through. It's the coding equivalent of nodding along without listening, and it's how bugs quietly sneak into production.
