In practice, Smalltalk methods tend to be very short. Having too many "callbacks" (really it's just asking Block objects for their value; the "lambdas" here are just objects too) is an issue of how you are designing things. A lot of if/else stuff is avoided simply by taking advantage of the kinds of polymorphism Smalltalk allows in the first place.
