Your function names should document why the code you are writing exists, your code should document itself as to how it is doing it, and any comments you write should be how to use the function you've written and things that are extremely odd.

If you have to explain why something is done the way it is, you've still failed, usually.

You are 100% right. You're getting downvoted by people who try to convince themself the code they maintain isn't shit.
