Sorry, it was a bit aggressive. By the same token, I'd say that 'Always' is an exaggeration in turn ^.^

I'm a harsh critic at times, but I usually vet myself back to the 'firm but reasonable' side of that line. I didn't get around to doing so that particular time, and to be honest, I simply could not, at the time of writing, think of a worse excuse, so from my perspective both 'completely misguided' and 'most atrocious imaginable' were quite accurate. If you can think of an excuse for doing that that a developer might reasonably make that is, indeed, even worse and of even poorer quality, I'd be intrigued to hear it, though I fear we'd be getting off topic by then ^.^
