Yes. My “worst” code was when I was mid-level. Too clever, showing off what I learned.
Music was my first career, and there was something that really stuck with me while studying music theory- learn as much as you can, and then don’t think about any of it when you go to compose.

This was my experience as well, for pretty much the same reason. At some point, I gained enough experience that I no longer cared about impressing anyone or showing off, and my code became substantially better.
