I think this is a really interesting argument. Don't write ugly things to get performance. Instead write obviously correct things and then make obvious optimisations.
Bah, except that if you use everywhere big ints, floating point intervals instead of floating points (the former is the correct representation of reals, the latter isn't), normalized strings, the obvious optimisations won't necessarily be enough to avoid being very slow..
