Maybe "most of the time".  Or "It's almost always worth it".  Why practice
bad habits?  We should reinforce writing good code -- there's not enough of
it out there.

There's another advantage to this advice: It would be good practice with the
techniques needed to extend or interface to existing codebases.  We aren't
going to rewrite such existing code, and we generally can't rewrite its
interfaces either.  So, write good code and then write glue code to the
required interface.

Seems to me this should be standard practice.  And the exercism.io mentors
might take this into account...
