Watched the talk a few years ago. Several times. It really hit home. Before, I would try to introduce abstractions as soon as I had one instance of duplication. After, my code has more duplications, less nesting, less abstractions. It's easier for a newbie to understand (or myself down the line), it's easier to delete and modify. I've shared the mantra "duplication is better than the wrong abstraction" with colleagues on many occasions.
