So why would you want to add to that? A loop in which you change a few attributes on a thousand entities will run 20 times slower when you cause cache misses, even worse if your cloud provider isn’t using fast ram. Then add to that your exponential slowness as your vtable class hierarchy grows and you’re adding a load of poor performance to your already poor performance.

Which might made sense if spreading your code out over 20 files in 5 projects gave you something in return. But I’d argue that it didn’t just cause your CPU, but also your brain, to have memory issues while working on the code.
