I find appropriations of the term "brutalist" strange in software contexts. In the architectural sense of brutalism wouldn't it mean limiting software construction to a single material (type,class,whatever) and leveraging that limitation to enhance other parts of the design (flow, modularity). In this way I think shell scripts are the most brutalist way of programming, ironically the author would probably agree.
