I think more than any other group, programmers can understand the gut reaction of calling code that they don't understand "junk".

  Normally it means "poor quality" though. I think "junk DNA" is more analogous to "dead code". Not all code labeled "dead" is actually unreachable/unused.

    Well we do have "comments" that are actually interpreted by tooling.
