Here’s one thing test driven development solves that has nothing to do with testing - empathetic code. Soon as you force people to write testable pieces of code, by definition you just forced them to write a good interface that considers how others will/could use it (in this case the ‘other’ is a test suite).

When that’s not in place, people often create selfish code where only their own needs are addressed.
