I always say "Just right is all wrong". The time and standardization cost is often just too much for the small gains. I'd much rather have everything be reusable, abstracted, and one size fits all, aside from the tiny fraction that matters enough to optimize.

Good points. But for myself, I like it when the structure of the code and data structures exactly fit the need. Like the old quite, “show me your header files and hide the C files, and I will understand your program.”
