It was also going fine for me up to that section but for different reasons: I think it makes sense to postpone/avoid externalizing configuration, but in case where a configuration is the default format (e.g. logging), going the extra mile to define that in code is both time-consuming and produces a less readable result. So I think the goal should not be to avoid configuration files, just avoid wasting time in making things configurable which probably never need to be re-configured.

Your point is also very valid though.
