How is that bad? I can't count how many times I've revisited my work a year or more later, and wondered what I was thinking, having taken 2 minutes to parse something dense that I wrote, and then thought "why didn't I make this a little clearer at the time?"
More verbose does not imply that is is more clear, it is often rambling and not even accurate.
correct. it’s long winded code that could be written a lot more succinctly.
Ah yes, that makes sense; thank you.
