I as a developer cannot refuse to not build as-is what was signed off by product manager in figma.

Recently had to put so many huge blurs that there was screen tearing like effect whenver you srcolled a table. AND No i was not allowed to use prebake-blurs because they wouldnt resize "responsively"
