Using boxes is great! The beauty of coding is that those boxes don't need to be discarded, we have the virtual power to transmute them into real chairs and tables via the power of refactoring. It's like Photoshop vs. watercolor. I'm going to sketch either way, it's just a matter of what the bar is for throwing it all out, and I think it's very often sufficient to decide in the moment in a virtual environment. That's all to say, going back to my first point, I don't need to decide ahead of time whether the code will be kept, I'm going to keep it loose either way.

And there are situations I'd go in assuming I'll probably rewrite the work, but I wouldn't set the criteria so broadly as to cover literally whatever the next large project I embark on will be, as the article suggests.
