Perry, you have posted the same anecdote again about a company choosing dotNET... but it has nothing do with the generic topic of whether it is worth 10 lines of code to get more granularity than 1 line of code. Most people here are well past the truism that lots of companies are selecting dotNET.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
