More like a hive-mind indoctrination on the legacy of tired modernism and its contemporary varieties.

Seeing an old building as COBOL - something not to be inspired from and immitate and continue to build similarly, but to rewrite and replace with something entirely else - is an example of that.

Better to see a Le Corbusier building as Brainfuck:

No architect would dare to touch a Brainfuck codebase :)
