I'm of the opinion that code quality is the thing that enables us to move quickly in a code base... I get concerned about over engineering when someone anticipates a need for future changes and then sacrifices clarity for something that has a low possibility of happening. I have no idea how to communicate about this though. I'm a junior engineer working with exclusively senior engineers.
