The source code has two purposes - to be processed (compiled/interpreted) by software, and to be read by humans. While it is relatively clear what is considered good code for the first purpose, it is harder to say what it is for the second one.
An essay could be written in an elegant style or be full of clumsy wordings and hard to understand sentences, despite having the same meaning. The same is true for source code.
