I'm not fond of scrolling (or ctrl+clicking) up and down to see what every little subroutine does to understand the code I have to fix. Only if it's my own code, I can be somewhat sure the tiny function does indeed SetOrderDate, but maybe it also modifies order's XML or changes some global variables... I can never be sure and I have to look, so reading bulldozed code is almost like reading huge routine but with way more scrolling.
