I first thought to post some links to code bases that, in my eyes, aptly counter argue your claim.

Then I realised that you have already solidly placed yourself in a corner and are bound to defend that corner no matter what I am going to post. Since there's no objective measure of what constitutes as a mess (in contrast to what is simply not perfect) it's also easy to convince yourself that the statement always remains true.

Alas.

...but then you realized they weren't supportive of your baseless assertion, and arguably were a hot mess as well.

"I really have proof for my argument, I swear, I'm just too petty to provide it, trust me bro". Are you serious?
I am. But the words you so freely attribute to me are not what I wrote or meant, and no amount of quotation marks around them will change that. Bro.
No shit, sherlock.

Instead of continuing the bickering, you could show us the code base, how 'bout that?

I have a truly devastating reply that this website's comment length is too small to contain.
