I would go so far as to say that to a new programmer on the team, Type B and Type C programmers' code looks much the same. I'm a type B. I've written entire systems from scratch that fit me like a glove. I could fix any problem in no time flat, and it was very stable. But when it came time to have other people work on it, it didn't fit them like a glove. It barely made any sense to them at all. They eventually got up to speed, but they were never as productive in it as they would have been in a decent framework-based system. I was actually quite happy when they decided to rewrite the whole thing... And then it turned out I left about a year later, so it was a good thing they did.
