it’s not useful for programming and it makes code more verbose, poorly structured, and requires too many attempts to get a mildly useful block.

    poorly structured,

    yes, that's bad

    requires too many attempts to get a mildly useful block.

    yes, that's bad

    more verbose,

    How is that bad? I can't count how many times I've revisited my work a year or more later, and wondered what I was thinking, having taken 2 minutes to parse something dense that I wrote, and then thought "why didn't I make this a little clearer at the time?"

    More verbose does not imply that is is more clear, it is often rambling and not even accurate.
