I'd thank you for the laugh and assume you worked in project management, marketing, or some other low info industry segment. I've worked with hundreds of developers over my career and the only time I've brushed up against anyone who even approximates what you are describing would be in HN comment threads. The craft-oriented women and men I've had the pleasure of working with have without exception held user experience and the future sanity of other developers interacting with the code they wrote as core requirements, every project, every line of code. Getting it right the first time tends to cut down significantly on refactoring.
