Isn't this literally the content of the article? What you just wrote down is basically this paragraph from TFA:

> And so, on schedule in 2022, the change to Section 174 went into effect. Companies filed their 2022 tax returns under the new rules in early 2023. And suddenly, R&D wasn’t a full, immediate write-off anymore. The tax benefits of salaries for engineers, product and project managers, data scientists, and even some user experience and marketing staff — all of which had previously reduced taxable income in year one — now had to be spread out over five- or 15-year periods.

Agreed that's literally what the article is about


Yes, I was joking around. I wrote the article. Unsuccessful attempt at humor.

Maybe just a tad too subtle =)
