are you suggesting this because you think I haven't tried it? I'm genuinely confused. We are professional developers working with a team of more than 1 person. Yes we have code in multiple files and have heard of the basic ideas of software architecture.

It's like being asked if i'm using source control? It's kinda a given if you're doing more than hobby projects.

I'm saying lean more into it, to the extreme and instruct your models to do the same

How would that help with the raised issue?

Smaller the function, less ways to screw it up, for humans and llms alike. I suspect humans don't code like this because it is too tedious but LLMs don't have such problems

Less ways to screw up an individual function, more ways to screw up their composition. Still not clear to me that it's better
