It's a tradeoff between two different kinds of clarity. Yes, it's harder to see the "whole wiring" without better tools...

But it makes small, encapsulated classes much easier to reason about and develop! You can focus on assuring: "My `Foo` can interact with a supplied `Bar`" rather than dealing with all sorts of crap about what implementation of `Bar` it gets or how that `Bar` instance is configured.
