One of the biggest problems when discussing code quality is that there are almost no objective standards. What looks like "good well-named" variables to one person is "overcomplicated garbage" to another, and there's nothing to inform us on which person is correct.
The closest thing we have is "does this code do what the user wants it to do". To me, this is the only question that really matters.
It’s true that it’s fairly subjective but that doesn’t mean we should abandon all judgment. Food is subjective as well but still you will get most (not all!) people agreeing that Nobu is better than McDonald’s.
