I respect he's open about his work and struggles, and it's cool he's programming at 86, but it does seem like his approach makes it harder for him rather than easier.
For example with the bowling score calculator, it's great to start with some tests, but I think he then marched towards a specific OOP formulation which obscured rather than clarified the problem.
