All things being equal in code correctness: the preference is cleaner parseable (by humans) code, as opposed to for example: having a while(true) loop with no exit condition, no way to get out of said loop - and have the code work perfectly exiting the loop due to esoteric features that take weeks to figure out, and are brittle to system changes (no code is static).

So yeah: code readability becomes the deciding factor for both what to accept: and what will be (most importantly) the most efficient use of development hours on fixing…

Or a better way of putting it… We are monkeys that bribed rocks and copper to think for us with electricity: design code and systems that even a monkey could maintain.
