I think he is, can second that. Not having to jump around 10 files with multiple classes and remembering where goes what usually means I can understand the code faster. Not sure about literature but for almost any technical matter I prefer learning from the smaller details instead of the big picture - it's often too vague and just doesn't stick in my memory.
