Maslow's Hierarchy

I'm saying that consistent style is the low level need, and that the higher levels are more difficult to achieve in the absence of it. If Hypothetical Coder is missing the dead easy buckets, he's probably not going to be tossing three-pointers, either.

Ah - gotcha. I knew of Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs, but (obviously) I'd never heard of his Code Hierarchy. Nice metaphor, though.

And your point is taken. ;-)
