I complete agree. The downsides of testable code are quite pedestrian - having to expose a couple more fields or having to parameterize a few things is nowhere near bad enough to forego the benefits.

Pedestrian downsides compound.

Trading some small downsides for big upsides may be a gain, but forgetting about the cost is a huge mistake.
