Well sure, but erring on the side of verbosity at least ensures that someone can follow your thinking as long as the code is well structured. I would prefer to read 25 lines of decent Python over 3 lines of regexes in Perl.

Sure, but at least I would prefer 25 lines of decent Python over 125 lines of overly verbose Java. Nothing is black and white, it is easy to make code too verbose and thus very taxing for the reader.
