There is very little positive guidance, just a sea of don’ts, usually worded as absolutes. And a lot of divisive “gender war” BS from all sides. Really not surprising.

It’s also worth noting that the bourgeoisie doesn’t just compete for power with the other two classes (proletariat and petit-bourgeoisie) - it also competes internally. And for that, different factions within the class will seek external support from different groups, and align their discourses to those.

And if someone were to ignore that and view them as a single-minded monolith it can easily be explained as divide & conquer tactics.

Algebraic notation breaks just about every rule programmers are taught about keeping their code human readable. For example:

• Variable and function names should be descriptive
• Don’t cram everything into one line
• Break up large statements
• Consistency is key
• Don’t be fancy for fancy’s sake, don’t over-optimize (this is for learning, remember?)
• Add in-line comments for lines that aren’t easily grasped
• Be explicit where possible (it’s a convention to omit the multiplication operator when multiplying variables because variables are only one letter anyway…)

And then we force kids to cram the whole stdlib (or rather its local bastardization) into their heads or at best give them intentionally bad (uncommented) documentation during exams while wondering why so many just don’t seem to get it, even resent it.
