I agree. What is easy to understand for you depends on your experience, personality etc. I have been told many times by experienced developers that my code is straightforward and easy to understand and maintain. However I have also been told by some inexperienced developers that I am “doing it wrong” because I am not following whatever pattern or silver bullet is currently hyped/fashionable on HN. Which always amuse me. It’s like a young inexperienced virgin trying to teach me about sex based on what he/she has read in the latest fashion magazine.
