So I'll be the one to trot out the infamous quote: "I've put in so many enigmas and puzzles that it will keep the professors busy for centuries arguing over what I meant..."
I'm personally distrustful of people who are temperamentally hostile to criticism, and I would think that self-described hackers would want to celebrate practices that seek to explain art rather than to shroud it in mystery. And Joyce's Ulysses has inspired some criticism that is literature in its own right, some obvious examples being Richard Ellmann's biography and at least half of Hugh Kenner's books.
