This makes sense to me. I think it’s really important to be able to predict what the software will do under certain circumstances. You can do that only if you have a pretty good concept of the thinking behind the code. I usually get nervous when something doesn’t behave as expected because it indicates that there is a mismatch between the theory and its implementation. This would explain why a lot of corporate software isn’t good. There is no shared understanding and a lot of people make changes without understanding the big picture.
