Great, that's exactly how I feel with any style that demands "each class in its own file" or "each function in its own file" or whatever. I'd rather have everything I need in front of my eyes as much as possible, rather than have it all over the place just to conform with an arbitrary requirement.

I said this at a company I worked and got made fun of because "it's so much more organized". My take away is that the average person has zero ability to think critically.



If those demands made any sense they would be enforced by the languages themselves. It's mostly a way of claiming to be productive by renaming constants and moving code around.
