yeah - the people actually keeping it simple (not designing for 100 future situations that will never actually show up) don't go on and on about elegrant properly engineered code. In general (exceptions exist of course) the entry level person writes much simpler code, focuses more on what needs to happen now.

etc

In my experience it's more likely the entry-level person who will write overly complicated code (or create such systems in general); they haven't yet learned how to identify potential approaches and to choose the most suitable one, and might not appreciate how many of their problems they don't actually need to solve at all.
