Judging from this thread, it seems like a lot of people have similar issues with UB's work.

It might just be that the divide of a getting-things-done developer and a bloat developer isn't really caused by Uncle Bob but merely correlates with it. I.e, good developers also agree with Uncle Bob, though apparently with a different interpretation of what he said.

  • Smart people read a book and critically think about it. The others think it was written by a superhuman and turn everything into religious beliefs.

    • I meant that the book is interpreted differently by different people. (That no-one takes it as religion, but that some read it as recommending to "create a mountain of unnecessary abstractions", and others read it that "add necessary abstractions".)
