There's wisdom out there that an incorrect but clear and well-commented program is better than a correct but unclear one. This is quoted at least in O'Reilly's "Practical C Programing" [1], which is a pretty good book. A lot of programmers believe this, too. I think the concept has merit (without taking it to extremes, of course).
