Clear and concise prose does not "trash literature" make. Vide Hemingway.
Code absolutely should be readable and as obvious as possible, but that itself can often be a sign of virtuosity; you've broken down the problem into such simple steps that reading it is easy.
To paraphrase Mark Twain, writing a short and clear program often takes much longer than a convoluted one. "Trash literature" is often full of unnecessarily adorned prose.
