Fair enough. It's a valid point of view. Sorry you had to deal with layoffs. It's one of the darker aspects of the industry.

To clarify, my objection was that we're criticizing this code for superfluous reasons when it's currently a delicate political climate in most game companies to even release code like this in the first place. It's probably best not to imply their reputation should be harmed by their lack of comments, since this can discourage other game companies from releasing their code in a similar manner. I've seen the argument "it might harm our reputation" be used to block endeavors like this.

I'd argue that a company should be able to take a little criticism - style based ones like mine will likely be ignored, as you mentioned before it's down to the culture of the company - for every function like the one outlined in the OP I'm sure there's countless examples of good style in the code base, engines are huge.

I really hope that companies don't view criticism as a negative thing, it's cause for discussion and change which are most certainly positive - I hope some bugs are found and they start to feel the benefit of the community a little.
