                        <span class="chatlog__markdown-preserve">I want to start by explaining what I mean by skimmability.
Skimmable code tends to have consistent shapes and is relatively uniform across the codebase.
This makes the code recognizable without reading the details and allows for a relatively fast read of the code.
It seems that this is:
1. Desireable
2. Makes programmers think they understand the code even though they missed the details
Apart from #2, it appears that writing for skimmability limits your options regarding code structure. Long functions or dense lines are not skimmable. Instead we see codebases with a million files that do "only one thing", lots of classes, single-line functions, getters/setters everywhere and heaps of syntactic sugar.
My opening argument is that I don't think much of the code structure issues we usually see are a results of bad theoretical ideas about "good code", but instead result from the desire to write skimmable code. (or perhaps the bad theories are just constructed such that they result in skimmable code?)
I don't think code needs to be skimmable at all and we should try to avoid skimming code even if it is skimmable in order to understand it properly.</span>

<div class="chatlog__markdown-quote"><div class="chatlog__markdown-quote-border"></div><div class="chatlog__markdown-quote-content">Code doesn't need to be skimmable, because no one should be skimming code. You should either read it carefully or skip it entirely.
You don't want to end up in a situation where you think you understand the code when you actually don't.
Once you give up on skimmability, you can focus on writing code that is clear when the programmer sits down to read it carefully, but you don't need to make it readable at a glance. A lot of classical readability constraints go away.
Much of today's code readability ideas, of having small classes/functions/files, only aid in skimmability.</div></div></span>
