This is a silly strawman. Developers often write hard to read code, and even if generics are useful to the writer, doesn't mean they are useful to the reader. Many developers do not consider the reader, or if they do, not very in-depth. You can also make the argument that generic code is uniformly harder to read than specific code.

I would argue that code using generics is often easier to read than code without it.

The fact that something is a type variable makes it clear the that type of that thing doesn't matter.
