Yeah never had that issue; maybe it's because I have been doing regexes (and apl which people call write only as well) for 30 years: it is not unreadable, nor throw away. I find it far more readable than the alternatives; reading pages of elaborate 'pseudocode' is more bothersome/time consuming than a oneliner to me.
