Who was I attacking? Writing unreadable code isn't a language problem. Even in doc-poor environments, the names and sparse comments should be enough. If not, the language can't help you choose good names.

Good luck remembering complex business logic in your perfectly readable code and all external dependencies (DBs, other microservices, etc.) a few months after you last touched it, and in the middle of the night.

And after a few refactorings.

Most errors have nothing to do with “unreadable code”.
