Isn't that true for, like, any code? Don't turn your code into an academic exercise. You are not writing it for the compiler - you are writing it for me.

It's not that different from the English language either. Laying out your thoughts in a clear and structured way is the real skill. Start using words and expressions that I have to constantly google for, and I will hate you very quickly.
