There’s also a third reason: a form of anti-intellectualism where you think that designs that are hard to derive are intrinsically more complex than just doing the straightforwardly obvious thing.
What is intuitive is strongly dependent on what you have been taught. For example, if you have only been taught to use loops, then iterator functions like map and filter seem less intuitive. However, once you have learned them, iterator functions are dramatically more intuitive than loops.
