I think there is a big psychological difference between hackers and "normals": the former see the data as just as a placeholder for the code to grab on to, whereas the latter see the data as important and the code as the ancillary thing. I think it comes down to coders being much more able to traverse levels of abstraction quickly. For us, "Asscock Asscocksson" is just tag for <loremipsum>, whereas non-coders may get tripped up on that and not be able to just skip past it.
