I feel it definitely saves time, if you can write a decent comment code, and the function name is descriptive, that's all you need. The functions write themselves. It's better if you follow the single-responsibility principle or at least don't have too many side effects in your methods.

Often times the comment isn't even needed and just a method name is enough to get it churning out the right code.. I might change a variable name, and some minor stuff but I don't have to search for little things I normally forget ...like framework sugar syntax I've used before but can't remember off my mind but when I see it, I know oh yeah that looks right...
