OK, I&#x27;ll start:  When I write code, I spend a fair amount of time on making sure it&#x27;s readable (e.g. StyleCop compliant on the first pass, well-commented, human friendly abstractions) and it&#x27;s not for aesthetics.  It&#x27;s so the next poor bastard who has to change it doesn&#x27;t have to stay up all night inferring my intentions from a bunch of one-letter variables.  There&#x27;s usually no &quot;back of the cabinet&quot; where I can safely cut corners.<p>Relevant:  <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;media.gettyimages.com&#x2F;photos&#x2F;cooking-oil-containers-are-seen-inside-the-construction-of-a-on-6-picture-id508865304" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;media.gettyimages.com&#x2F;photos&#x2F;cooking-oil-containers-a...</a>
