An engineering system, as for example a computer language, is the result of lot

no. "Worse is better" implies a trade-off - you sacrifice something like
purity, cleanliness, etc to gain simplicity of implementation.
What I was trying to convey is that this does not apply here since there
is no trade off to make - you get nothing by going with the worse option
in this case.
