Once you move past a couple thousand LOC, you'll appreciate having an easily modifiable, modular design you had the foresight to plan out.

Or you can just trawl through thousand of lines of unstructured spaghetti code trying to figure out where to shoehorn your new feature in like a QBasic/Arduino kid.

I've never appreciated design decisions made before starting to code. I always have to refactor later when my requirements change or when I realize there's a better way to do something.
