No, if implemented by a group, they're the group's way of saying, "we code like this and so should you, if you want to be in this group".

Why should I want to read through code instead of reading documented method signatures, unless I specifically want to rewrite that code?

How the code does what it does is irrelevant if the code is modular as it should be.
