Maybe it's because
I'm going to take issue with your last paragraph. Any developer worth their salt should have a number of modules in use that allow for reuse. For example, I have a set of tools that would allow me to do almost any one-off task without writing much code for database connections, configuration, and the like. And, it's almost quicker to write it factored out than it is to write it as one big blob. Why? Because it's easier to verify that your code which may only have one chance to be executed will do it right. Because you're never noticed when you succeed, but you're in the spotlight if you fail. Developers will always have time to develop correctly, if they plan as if they will need to do so in the next hour. ------
Please remember that I'm crufty and crochety. All opinions are purely mine and all code is untested, unless otherwise specified.
