> I doubt many people will honestly admit they did no design, testing and that they believe the code is sub par

I'd doubt any engineer that doesn't call most of their own code subpar after a week or two after looking back. "Hacking" also famously involves little design or (automated) testing too, so sharing something like that doesn't mean much, unless you're trying to launch a business, but I see no evidence of that for this project.

Well no, but if people want to see a statement like this, and given that most people will want to be at least halfway honest and not admit to slop, maybe it will help nudge things in the right direction.
