I agree if the point is to write code for human consumption, but the point of vibe coding tools like Windsurf is to let the LLMs handle everything with occasional direction. And the LLMs will create 2000+ line files when asking them to generate anything from scratch.

To generate such files and then not be able to read them is pure stupidity.

I agree, but I've worked with many people now who seem to prefer one massive file. Specifically Python and React people seem to do this a lot.

Frustrates the hell out of me as someone who thinks at 300-400 lines generally you should start looking at breaking things up.
