I don't get why people find those numbers of lines meaningful. The Mistral code you linked starts with 13 import statements. If they wanted they could have packed all those 369 lines into a separate package, and imported that into a two-line source file. It wouldn't be any bit more impressive, though, and in reality the codebase would now actually be larger.
