For some reason many people are choosing to focus on code readability. This is not how a real-world program would be written. Who actually writes a single train-of-thought implementation without isolating concerns or using any code separation features? No realistic coder would expect their team to be satisfied working with code like this. It’s just a benchmark program, it doesn’t actually fit a use case or solve a problem.

I have seen much more programs that look exactly like this (at least for the C++ part) than programs with clean separation of concerns in my life. > No realistic coder would expect their team to be satisfied working with code like this. assuming you've got a team (and that they are trained and not a bunch of interns or barely-graduated with 100% year-over-year turnover), assuming you are a professional developer and not someone who codes in the context of another profession (researcher, artist... heck, I've seen a music teacher making small python apps for the lobby of their music school once, etc).
