It almost certainly is. And that's not entirely awful its a tool used by scientists to do work.
(it is inexcusable in 2021 in my personal opinion, but in many ways science is still in the dark ages wrt some of the tools being used, just as the
ML community is learning a lot about things like reproducability and falsafiability from scientists with experience here)
I just with the community would share code more to prevent common mistakes and repeated effort and so we can all learn.
Imagine a world with publically well documented code that helps people learn science rather than scientists having to teach coders what they want and codes having to teach scientists intracasies of languages and hardware choices.
