That's why. If all codes in a project are stupid, there's no stupid code indeed relatively.

Go read Linux kernel mailing list.

And reading the Linux kernel mailing list would allow him to... do what exactly? And by when? Compared to writing simple, working, usable apps in TypeScript, immediately after reading about how Deno/TypeScript/etc. work?

It would allow him to brutally roast anyone who submits a sub-optimal merge request.

Linux still works by email-submitted patches, the workflow for which git was originally designed.

And if an unacceptable patch made it to Linus's desk, someone downstream hasn't been doing their damn job. The submaintainers are supposed to filter the stupid out, perhaps by more gentle guidance toward noob coders. The reason why Linus gets so angry is because the people who let it through should know better.

To avoid writing stupid code since they will see qualified people put reason on why some codes are "garbage" (I'm not saying this).
