To add to Ted's comment, the main mistake we made in generating readable C# from the start was using `System.CodeDom` as our code generator, which explicitly does NOT care how readable your output is.

A better idea would have been to hand-code the generator, though of course that would have been a lot of string manipulation as well as a little extra effort.

Roslyn solves both of those issues for us, but it didn't exist until very recently.
