I’m not sure what you are implying. This is not a problem you’d notice if you use this pattern yourself, but something that makes code harder to read for people that don’t.

I directly replied to you post saying:

> I wonder if the original author will be able to understand their own code in a few weeks

As the original author of plenty of this code, I'm reporting no problems 1300 weeks in.

Thanks for replying, but it seems you missed the second part of my comment.

A fine criticism, but surely you see that you first made a comment about the author themselves not being able to read their own code, I replied about that, then you said it wasn't something the author themselves but about other people.

To be fair, I find every code style that isn't my own harder to read than the style I prefer myself.
