often poor code is a symptom of poor data structure design. having the wrong data structure can make your code heinously complex. conversely designing the data structure correctly can make your code simple and clear, because it’s obvious how to manipulate the structure to your code.

i also see a lot of code where people effectively throw 30 responsibilities into the same class. Really difficult to update. strictly enforcing single responsibility solves a lot of problems.
