you're actually trying to criticise people for code re-use?
last i checked (and i admit that this was probably ooh... minutes ago) creating libraries of common functions was a credible, recommended, even applauded way of reducing clutter and inventing the wheel once, and only once.
in fact, i think that everyone everywhere whenever they do anything on a computer (that isn't in machine-code or assembler) generally uses a library as part of their work. i know i do.
it's amazing, but it reduces, complexity, effort and yes, even cost.
and even his eminence mr. torvalds does it? astounding.
