If we apply this idea to programming, most programs generally do something “useful”, they have utilitarian function. But whatever is the thing that makes you say some code is elegant, might be art? Aspects of design that are not per se mandatory for the code to function and appeal to tastes and aesthetics. I’m convinced I don’t know what I’m talking about.
