I agree with this somewhat.. but it leans just on the edge of encouraging bad code.

For junior coders, this stuff is certainly the case. But you get into a serious enterprise who has enough money riding on the output and you can bet you're going to see better stuff.

You're not paid to write code, you're paid to solve problems. I get that. But the same hacky nasty "sales director wants... " type sloppy stuff only works in some situations but when you get to the higher levels it will likely get you fired.
