I'd rather work with this than Enterprise Java.

At least the logic is all there and you only need to scroll to see it, instead of jumping around between a dozen or more different files.

Math-heavy code tends to look dense to those who are accustomed to more "mundane" LOB type applications.

This. The convenience of everything in a single file is underrated. You can do all the modern best practice like splitting into more functions, making functions small, and I wouldn't mind if they are all in the same file.
Being a Java dev (not enterprise any more) I agree that some enterprise software is an abomination for exactly the reason you mention.

However, can you imagine how bad an enterprise C++ project would look like?

A gameengine is as enterprise as it gets.
