Good point. Writing has to create a narrative in a way code does not. It's generally very structured when written for others and not just ourselves, and I would say you can probably be looser with writing than code in the small but once you get into paragraphs, code starts being more flexible (I don't mean theoretically just my own opinion on what's common). Ie codes syntax is fixed but the composition is very flexible while writing prose is very flexible but you will find only so many ways of writing paragraphs or pages because we are so often using writing to create a narrative arc.
