My personal view is that programming languages are amazing tools for understanding. Some more than others, but even the worst—the most verbose, the lowest level—are better than they have any right to be.

So I think that we are leaving a lot of power on the table if we treat generated code exclusively as something to understand, rather than something to understand with. The techniques Geoffrey presents are great, but they should come alongside approaches that use code itself to develop and articulate conceptual models.
