I agree with you!

I find other people's code difficult to follow due to all the abstractions that I wouldn't have inserted.

When I write Clojure code for example, the code just works. I somewhat understand the code I write.

But when I read other people's Clojure, I find it difficult to understand. I think it's my maturity in understanding Clojure, the mental model isn't there yet. Which is funny because I've been on two projects where we used Clojure.

I don't have the same problem with less metaprogramming languages such as C, Java or Python.
