You see ionice? I see years of different high skilled people work and thousands lines of high-quality code.

A nice argument.

You picked a really bad example. ionice.c is a mere 200 lines long, and utterly horrible (e.g. using numeric arguments where the actual interface uses a named #define, but apparently exporting that name to the user would have been too hard, just use the numbers dammit).
