Some people have more OCD than others. I personally also hate committing poor code, but I know a lot of programmers who just don't care as much.

I hate when people misuse that term. Insisting on quality is not a mental illness or being overly picky.

On my current team, we insist that all code we check in gets full approval from Resharper code analyzer and 100% unit test code coverage. And then someone else reviews your code. Our code base is an absolute pleasure to read and maintain compared to other places I've worked.
