OK, not *strictly* on the topic of Euphoria, but here are some paper's I've
run across that might resonate.

You might want to check out Worse Is Better, at:
    http://laputa.isdn.uiuc.edu/worse-is-better.html

(You might just want to skip the LISP stuff and search for "worse is
better").

More recent is the discussion on the Big Ball of Mud, at:
    http://laputa.isdn.uiuc.edu/mud/mud.html

Both of these discuss why software may often appear to be suboptimal, and
why this may not be such a bad thing after all.

Finally, a discussion on "open software" is The Cathedral and the Bazaar at:
