The assertion was "good code is rarely read."

    good code ⇒ rarely read
In that context, "often-read code" does not tell us anything about code quality. And often-read code that's not bad is not a defeater.


On the contrary.

A = "good code"; B = "rarely read"; C = "often read"

A implies B

B is exclusive with C

X leading to C implies X is not A


Btw this is called "contrapositive"
