Agreed. I'm 53. My code is well engineered which came from decades and decades of learning on hundreds of projects. Unless you have lived with badly designed systems and felt the downside of that you can never appreciate experience. It isn't about how fast code is written. It is about how long it can hold up over time. Cost of ownership over time vastly outweighs up front cost and if you have to manage some young developers poorly designed code, you don't know what real pain is.
