How often do you check your written content and functionality when you test your UI?

See, in the required add-ons section, it says to β€œselect between 1 and 0” options (huh?), and all the checkboxes are greyed out. I couldn’t select anything, and it’s *required*, sooo…

I tried to order a burrito through Instacart’s restaurants feature, but #brokenUI stopped me.
