Thanks for your feedback, I think my comment history can stand as testament to the fact that broadly speaking I generally know what I’m talking about. As for your charge of ignorance, that’s your call to make, but you seem to be missing the point I was trying to make (and which I obviously articulated very poorly), namely that code length and complexity is an interaction between both the algorithm being encoded and the formalism into which it is being encoded (programming language). Anyway, I’ll leave it at that. Have a good day.

Code length correlates with complexity if you don't go out of your way to game it, so it is still a valid way to say "this renderer is really simple and cool!".

  No it isn't. Are you counting the total lines of library code you're calling also? Total number of machine instructions generated? This attitude you have, that only the Y lines of code in your high level language floating way up in the clouds is the only thing that matters, is one of the key reasons why bloated, shit code is being constantly written and shoveled upon the masses. You don't know about the underlying complexity, and apparently don't care to know.
