Depends on who you are.  I remember once
shaking my head in disbelief while examining
a _single_ Ada file that contained three _different_
algorithms for removing leading and trailing blanks
from a string.

When the person who wrote it said to someone else
across the room, "Ada is an abomination" it was very
difficult to not turn around and say, "It certainly
is when you write it!"
