Man.. just code, let people build, design, adjust. Who cares? Who are these people writing these posts? Why should we give anything they have to say warrant? These posts are getting old, very quick.
To analogize coding to sculpting - you're in the "toddler with playdough" phase. At some point you might want to make something other people will find pleasing and maybe even worth putting on display, the rules of composition, the details of materials, and the techniques for not wasting expensive materials suddenly become important.
If you're just writing code to fuck around or automate a small part of your life, whatever. But if you're making a big system or wanting other people to use your product, these things about how to make good software become more relevant.
