I may exaggerate for effect, but 150LOC developed over two weeks is still vastly more surface area than a localized 5LOC change developed over the course of a few hours.
Of course circumstances vary and it depends on verbosity and idioms of your preferred language, framework and codebase. Maybe 150LOC is the minimum it takes to express a logical change unit.
My point is not about specific “maximum line count in a commit” but about a commit expressing a single logical change concept, and not a whole chapter of a book.
> making better individual commits is not going to help with understanding those … "jumbo" PRs of 1K-2K LOC.
This is where we disagree, it seems. You appear very categorical here, could you clarify why you think this is the case?
