There’s not one perfect answer, the eye is in the beholder.

I personally have a harder time coming up to speed on things that don’t break things down into fairly small chunks. I have an easier time dealing with abstraction and would rather implementation details of what I’m looking at to be hidden until I drill in another level. IDEs make that latter part easy.

However I’ve come to realize that there’s not a one size fits all here. I’ve worked with people who are the exact opposite, and everything in between.

The best one can do is try to find the happiest medium for everyone involved and power on
