Downvote all you like, it is bad code all the same.


If you said why, you'd be less likely to get downvoted. Hand-waving assertions of "that dreck" are not well judged.


Speaking just for myself, after perusing Fuchsia source, the code seems eye-wateringly "clever," pretty much everywhere.

I'm doubtful many people would be able to read it or contribute to it very effectively.


Anybody who can look at the reproduced code and not recoil in disgust will be unlikely to understand a detailed criticism. Just read it!


I'd encourage you to have a go at explaining nonetheless. I'm sure there are at least a few critiques you have which many here would miss, even if they are competent. There's always value in code review, no?
