I've seen some very impressive messes too. What's the phrase? Ah yes:
You can program FORTRAN in any language.
I've seen some superb VB/Java/Scala/C code, and some completely crap
VB/Java/Scala/C.
The quality of code is usually nothing to do with the language, but with
the quality of the programmer.

I don't see the big deal. I've seen all sorts of code that I wonder how
people ever got it to work. Some messes are actually impressive in that
way.
His point was that the power of the language is not the problem, it's the
coding practices. The notion that Java being a very constrained language
prevents people from creating messes is flawed.
I don't completely buy this btw, but the point has some merit.
