Although I think you're right about having smaller modules, I 
generally find it easier to browse through a larger file than 
many smaller files.

Multiple files is ok if you know what you're looking for (grep) 
but when you're just trying to scan across a system to get a feel 
for how it's working, juggling many files is a real pita.
