It's not a universal thing.

You can go into some interviews, say you write code just good enough to ship, and that will be a red flag to them.

You have to choose your tribe on this issue and be comfortable with the other tribe hating your style.

Surely, I have given up to the pretty tribe on a couple of pull requests, as I have better things to do with my time, and it is easier to make their wishes come true than endless arguing.
