I would be interesting to do a similar study on some Factor code.

I would expect similar results. Factor and other stack-based languages are not particularly linear, thanks to, well, factoring. Sure, data flow generally runs from left to right and top to bottom, but word and tuple definitions are just as scattered about as in any procedural language.
