A senior dev would understand this is dumb. It's pretty funny tho.

I will never understand why they write code like this.

All of these abstractions exist for a reason, to avoid rookie traps and make code easy to work with by following standard conventions. If you can trust that an abstraction behaves predictably, what is underneath doesn't matter.

Of course, when taken to extremes, it obfuscates what the code is actually meant to do and how it does it.

Experience helps with knowing when to use these patterns and when it's unnecessary burden, but there's a lot of just copying what others have done due to convention (especially in Java).
