wait, I finally get it. 10x developers write 10x lines of code. They're just verbose AF, so that many more lines of liability. That's it. Yeah, I'm not 10x.

I'm not saying, reduce lines of code in favor of readability, but that's a different argument. I've heard it said that no abstraction is better than the wrong abstraction, but are 10xers opting for no abstraction all the time?

I barely know how to code, but I think I could write a lot of lines of code too. They would be incredibly inefficient and poorly written though.
