That doesn't fly in all production environments though.

Sometimes doing 10,000 function calls is a hell of a lot more expensive than sending a 10,000 sized array to one function call.

I'm all for simplifying code, but not to the point of "start at date 0000-00-00 and increment upwards, so what, computers are fast" level (which is close to the type of person I'm taking about)

There's a certain threshold that I would imagine is different for different domains within different companies and perhaps different teams.

I'm fine with people who come out of programming 101 and want to continue to learn new programming ideas, not someone who's going to say my code is wrong because they didn't cover it in their 101 class.
