Hopefully it won't actually. Most languages are not designed for compactness of source code, and most forms of factoring will produce fairly noticeable patterns; e.g. lots of funcion declarations.

True. One would have to first reduce the natural duplication/patterns that come with the language (i.e. function declarations, etc.) so that only the meaningful user code is left, before such analysis would be useful.
