I find this to be true even in cases when you have large projects. Sometimes the scale of the project will necessitate adding 'extra complexity' to a specific set of core modules but this is only in order to reduce the complexity of other peripheral modules. IMO, you should never add extra lines of code to a module beyond what is immediately necessary unless it allows you to reduce even more lines of code in other parts of the code.
