I have been on several teams that found the following article "Unlearning toxic behaviours in a code review culture" very helpful:

I'd like to point out that every one of the "correct" examples is longer, sometimes much longer, that the "wrong" example preceding it.

I've found that I usually start with the "correct" way and end up regressing to the "wrong" way as more and more work piles up, stress builds and deadlines approach. I guess the "correct" way only works if the organization actually prioritizes it and gives reviewers the time to do it the "correct" way no matter what stage the project is in.

This should be basic training anywhere people learn how to code.
