Just switch back and forth between box representation and graph. It's still far better than text. Text fails far faster. Have you ever used IDA? It shows a grap

Just switch back and forth between box representation and graph. It's still far better than text. Text fails far faster. Have you ever used IDA? It shows a graph view of assembly based on jump flow instead of a linear assembly listing. Of course you can't magically understand all programs just with a simple algorithm to format them a certain way, but it's still immediately obvious that this is better. Most code is immediately understandable just using a C#/Java decompiler or gofmt without the programmer needing to format it. I just see variable names and formatting as spam and red herrings. Anyway you can't audit code by taking the programmer's word that he formatted it a certain way, so this whole "text for writing a poem of comprehension" idea is moot and outdated at least 30 years ago anyway.
