Unfortunately bloatware sells well, too - take Microsoft or Adobe.
Why this analogy: succinctness and beauty is not appreciated in our industry, whereas it should have been a standard, like in mathematics or physics, where it is appreciated and "standardized" so to say. In math and physics you have to express youself in the most concise way. And I have never seen beauty and succinctness of the code being a requirement as a part of making software, unfortunately.
Edit: "bloatware" pertains to both the code and the interface.
