    This is something I've considered too. If you think about it, the best practices we have for software design are largely motivated by human comprehension and human maintainance. But agents may not need any of that. (I still revise and tweak patches for today's standards.)

    Symmetry, proportion, balance, regularity -- all things that we weigh when judging a codebase's structure or its beauty. Might be completely irrelevant to agents.
