1. if you think you code is good, you wont strive to improve if it defaults as crap and has to prove itself that its good, then you should end up with better code

2. I think your putting a different emphashis on "care"

3. same as 1.

4. no, your higherup only cares about the final product, thats very different from caring about the code, if a bunch of hacks gets the job done quicker than the elegantly carved solution, they dont care (unless your hacks part of the core and delay the next part)

1. Good is not perfect. Good code can still be improved, though, it doesn't have to be crap for that.
