Depends on the complexity of the model and how you organize it. If it's broken into functions where one function is one relatively simple part of the model, things work pretty nicely. And names are scoped to the function so you don't have to worry about polluting some global scope.

But if you're making something very complicated, code-based CAD sort of falls apart, which is why I'd love to see some sort of hybrid approach.
