Hot take: I was building our component library wrong for a whole year
Honestly, I kept adding new, unique components for every feature request from the marketing team, which gave us over 80 separate buttons by last quarter. What tipped me off was our new dev, who asked 'why does this green button on the pricing page work differently than the green button in the dashboard?' and I couldn't give a straight answer. Has anyone else had to merge a ton of similar components and found a good way to explain the change to stakeholders?

Eighty different buttons sounds like a real headache.

Actually it's not that bad once you get used to it, @amy_reed79. The layout is pretty clear and groups things together. You just learn the main ones you need.
