Yeah, this is a good point. "Increasing maintainability" is definitely crucial. Making the code easier to read ultimately makes it easier to maintain as well. Good one!
Thanks 😁. I think that's an important and generally overlooked point: if maintainability is the goal, and code quality just a tool (and not the actual goal), then you (often) need to decide on what you need to spend your time on to optimally increase maintainability. When you need to spend twice as much time to get that code quality from 90 to 95% (figuratively speaking), then chances are that that time is better spent on other improvements that have a higher impact on maintainability.
