With all due respect, this is incorrect. In the real world, supervisors are
not baby sitters. They usually (almost always) do not have time for a full
(or even partial) code review. Even if a supervisor assigns a senior
programmer to review a junior programmers code, in a real shop where
everybodies working on there own stuff, it just doesn't get done.
Only when code review is part of an institutional and formal process does
it get done, which is hardly ever the case. So if you agree (and you
certainly have the right not to) that some feature makes maintainance a
greater issue; if that feature is in the language you can be assured that
some will abuse it. OTOH, whatever doesn't exist can not be abused.
