No, you are certainly not the only one.  Your code is much easier to 
understand.  As someone who spends a good portion of time every week 
doing what amounts to "software archeology" (maintenance programming) on 
code written by very smart programmers with varying degrees of expertise 
and experience over the course of 20+ years, I completely agree.

Again, no.  The points you make are spot on.
