I don't understand why the general opinion here is so negative. Having this kind of competition means people _reading_ each other's code, and this alone is worth gold. Some friendly rewriting can't possibly hurt. After all, this is what open source is about, and it definitely works.
Of course, engineering competition has a lot of chances to backfire, but everything can be taken too far.
