FWIW I tend to find most 8-5 gigs aren’t really interested in simplicity or efficiency. Software are often all quite meeslessly complex and hard to maintain both organizationally and technically.

I think part of it is also human nature and the effect of adding more people to projects or organizations.

I’m often reminded when coming across things like htmx of the adage of an Enterprise software team vs. a Startup or Open source team developing the same solution.

Aho gets it done faster, better and more efficiently?
