MIT v. New Jersey is a false dichotomy. MIT tends to put the cognitive overhead on the callee, where New Jersey does so on the caller. New Jersey tends to eschew in-depth architectural modeling leading to insufficient generality and flexibility, whereas MIT creates overly coarse-grained results from axiomatically underthought standards for "correctness" and an overbearing sense for what is "complete" (which usually starts to infringe on mechanism and begins making policy decisions, hence again lowering generality). New Jersey gives you the web. MIT gives you systemd. Neither school has been all that effective in reliability, dependability or even composability (especially not interposable interfaces). Neither school is elegant in the slightest.
