Same, my coworker used this argument when I tried to get them to write more comments. The number of hours I've wasted due to there being no comments at all is way, way, way more than the very small number I've wasted due to a no-longer-accurate comment. And I usually find that people who write self-documenting code choose variable/function names that might make sense to them at the time, but are vague and confusing to me when I need to read the code.
