The main problem I see with callbacks is that people forget that deeply nested structures are too cumbersome to hold in one's brains. The OP rules to break down things in smaller, named function is a solution to a more general problem: don't nest things if you can avoid to. Callbacks aren't the problem. People using them are the problem. Keep your logic as flat as possible and callback-hell will dissolves before your eyes. Programming dogma is so annoying.
