> Programming languages are natural and ambiguous too, what does READ mean?
Not nearly in the same sense actual language is ambiguous.
And ambiguity in programming is usually a bad thing, whereas in language it can usually be intended.
Good code, whatever that means, can read like a book. Event-driven architectures is a good example because the context of how something came to be is right in the event name itself.
