And that's precisely what I disagree with. I will _never_ function that way.

Which you should be doing anyway. That's part of designing the class of
function. I don't need tests to do that. The tests are to verify that what I
wrote work correctly. That's it.
So, I think that it's clear that I will never agree with TDD. If someone else
wants to code that way, and it works for them, great, but it's not how I want
to function.
