LOC can be a huge indicator of quality of code imho—would you want to work on a 100k loc app that is more or less crud operations for a specific domain? Etc.

  I couldnt care less as long as the codebase has a decent structure. And decent structure often increase lines of code.

    I’ve found the opposite to be true. Good structure yields succinctness.

      It may, but LOC isn't a good measure of succinctness. It might be a good measure for terseness, but that's different.

        I think it can safely be said by any programmer, at least, that succinctness and terseness are correlated.

  If you care about happiness, why would you want to work on a CRUD app at all? Anyway I'm not sure what else your 100K LOC is supposed to represent - that the app has a lot of responsibilities?
