The end result is never the code itself. In fact, the end result exists over time, and often the shape of the result in the time dimension is better the shorter the code and the more thorough the intangible forethought. But yes, I don’t know how clear must I be about it—this is learning (for very young humans still psychologically immature), that’s exactly why it has to be spelled out that evaluation must be on the effort, precisely because it is never on the effort in any other activity in adulthood.
