There's places where writing bad shitty code doesn't matter but frankly I'd rather be at places and rather have colleagues and an environment where we don't write bad shitty code.
The attempts to circumstantially excuse away shitty answers goes against the desire to just not be shit.
The author here seemed able and willing to talk through constraints & issues. Their first paragraphs practically begged for it, as a sign of maturity. Rather than just excuse away shitty solutions, my hope is, even if you are not a super competent can-do coder, you at least can talk through and walk through problems with people that are trustable, to arrive at reasonably competent capable answers.
