1) Coding clearing in the moment vs (2) coding clearly for future selves is two different mindsets/contexts right there. (3) Communicating clearly is an orthogonal skill to coding clearly. I think this skill is barely acknowledged in engineering cultures in comparison to the above. I feel you have to have an engineering culture that values institutional knowledge retention, team education and growth — and not treating engineers as fungible — to get to level (2). Level (3) would be a great place to work.
