I don't mean to take today's peculiar post too seriously, and your opening line undermines that. But of all the oddities in it, this one seemed most peculiar. How does "stream-lined" code written for maintainability (i.e., with helpful comments and tests) become *less* accessible to amateurs?? That just does not match my experience in the least. And btw, as someone who has (backwardsly enough) translated a little C++ and C to Python, I found C++ much easier to grok without leaving my Python perspective. (The technical questions are entirely separate, of course.)
