You're right; in this case it probably is adequate. I'm by no means an expert programmer (alas, I come from the business development/marketing side of things),

You're right; in this case it probably is adequate. I'm by no means an expert programmer (alas, I come from the business development/marketing side of things), and I used to measure things in LoC as if it were a be-all end-all metric. Then I started programming and realized how ridiculous that is. It's probably the best metric to use, I just wish there were something better.
