Having not read the book OP mentioned, I would say it's important to emphasize that structure does not necessarily mean abstraction. Starting a new project is more like getting groceries and stocking the pantry than it is starting a stew and agonizing over which type of onions to toss in.

Good abstractions evolve naturally out of good structure.
