+================================================================================
+DEVELOPER EXPERIENCE
+================================================================================
+
+BEFORE - New Developer:
+  1. Read 18 separate migration files
+  2. Figure out which patches apply to which tables
+  3. Mentally merge changes across multiple files
+  4. Trace forward references
+  5. Hope you didn't miss anything
+
+AFTER - New Developer:
+  1. Read 5 logically grouped migrations
+  2. Each domain self-contained
+  3. All patches already incorporated
+  4. Clear dependency flow
+  5. Comprehensive README with diagrams
+
+Time to Understand Schema: 2 hours → 30 minutes
