I love the story about a group of American car manufacturer executives visiting factories of Japanese car manufacturers in the 80's. After returning to the US they were asked about their visit and they remarked that the Japanese did not show them their real factories, as the Japanese factories were too clean according to the American executives. As it turns out, a clean work environment (and that includes source code) has benefits if you are doing logical work.
