Computers do seem to encourage constant revision of small snippets. It's the same with art. You'll see artists with their fingers on CTRL-Z and re-drawing each line a dozen times until they're happy, line by line. I'm guilty of that too. Yet, I also find that just finishing a whole piece first before revising it is more efficient, because you can put a higher focus on the bigger picture. Programming IDEs have the same problem, they keep distracting you away from the bigger picture to fix all your tiny little typos first, when you'll probably have deleted that code already by the time your code is really ready to test.
