..to ensure that noone will ever want to look at it again, so that
bugs won't be found? Makes no sense.

I consider the opposite to be true, in particular code with strange
logic should be easy on the eyes so that anyone who has even slight
interest could actually review it and maybe even spot a bug.

If the code is painful $person will just laugh and go away, leaving
bugs lingering..
