Rolling your own crypto: Everything you need to build AES from scratch
I think you've misunderstood.
There are at least two separate things are stake here: there's professional software engineering, and then there's hobbyist programming.
Software engineering has been undergoing professionalization (in terms of processes and safety standards) for the last 70 years. It's one of the few ways in which software really is an engineering practice: our standards are written in blood (or fraud), just like every other engineering discipline. In this context, DRYAC and "don't write it in C" are excellent principles: we've successfully professionalized and compartmentalized beyond the need for the bad old ways, except in limited cases (corresponding to domain expertise or specific, legacy requirements).
Then there's hobbyist programming, where you can do whatever you please. I write C for fun. I implement hilariously outdated block ciphers for fun[1]. I couldn't write a web app if my life depended on it. The key understanding with hobbyist programming is that it's (1) adequately disclaimed as not usable in professional contexts, or (2) adheres to the same standards as professional, potentially critical, software engineering.
Open source started as case (1) above, and is slowly turning towards case (2) where it matters. And where it matters is cryptography and, increasingly, memory unsafe code.
In other words: you're more than welcome to build a model train set (I do it), but it doesn't qualify either of us to run a railroad. What qualifies us is learning and performing everything else involved in the safe and normal operation of a modern railroad, including knowing not to build steam engines anymore.
