I'd rather not have that statement more than 80 char long; that might be a one liner where many things are happening, in case there _is_ value is breaking it up, or maybe the variable names are too long, not helping readability.

Long variable names can cause long lines.

So can simple arithmetic that would be worse with intermediate values.
