The title, well actually the entire article, is one of those things where A -> B is stated, well knowing (and almost expecting) that readers will understand it as B -> A or B <-> A. It's the developer version of the typical "10 Things Successful People Do" clickbait. Yes, a lot of (although far from all!) good coders have the habit of taking small bites. That doesn't mean though that by taking smaller bites you are (or are becoming) a good coder. I've had the past displeasure of dealing with code that hit all the superficial checkmarks (small commits, unit-tested, peer-reviewed, you name it...) yet completely stunk.
