It's an amazing phrase. AFAICT it doesn't actually mean anything. I certainly understand why such a high-profile developer would choose such a "bland, yet poetic" phrasing; my issue is just with trying to interpret it as somehow insightful.

it pretty clearly meant "code that has been lovingly handcrafted to the specifications of the problem", as opposed to "churned out using a mass-production framework". the analogy works for me.
