I've worked on projects with a more iterative pipe and filters approach, and it can lead to situations where it's difficult to maintain or test anything. The problem that frequently occurs is that there's a new configuration parameter, but it needs to pass through a dozen different levels to get to the place that it's used. That and structs on top of structs as parameters gets very complex fast.
