I've told my own students how programming conventions are about appreciating reading code and not about making it easier to write, and my frustration at CS curriculum that "doesn't teach you how to read, yet grades you on your poetry" https://twitter.com/leftoblique/status/1114951714807791616

Nowhere is there any actual indication that anyone would ever want to do this, but the instructions are there just in case anyone does.

that just can't work well
why is it that unusual time signatures make music so interesting?
fun fact: as famous as the ancient greek philosophers pythagoras and socrates are, people aren't actually sure whether either of them actually existed
