> minimal and simple is not the same thing as easy to use and natural/obvious You are right about that. I value "minimal and simple" more than "familiar" because it makes my growth trajectory less arbitrary and more about intrinsic properties of the code. I don't care about learning how to do things the same way as everyone else nearly as much as I care about learning how code can be improved generally. I know that code is written for humans, and that you can't remove the human from the equation. But I'm more interested in the future of code than in present-day code culture.
