Dude, you don't have to be a dev to write code. There are many self-taught coders out there. I do agree that they should read a book or two regarding coding pracices, but hey, you don't like it, rewrite it 🤷.

Me, personally, if someone else made it, I need it and I don't have time to meddle (I usually don't), I just use it. With all do respect, fuck coding practices, I got more important things in my life to worry about.

Meh, maintainability is king. Sticking to the letter of the style law is probably not necessary, but ignoring badly structured code now is going to bite you in the ass when it comes time to change any of it.
