At risk of causing further dancing on the head of a pin style argument I'd like to point out that contrary to what some people seem to believe it was a sincere question based on my own experience of writing similar control software in an industrial context.

If I had intended to say that the number of lines were in actual fact excessive I would have omitted the word seems.
