Starting points for thought
The APL Lesson: If all your problems can be solved with short programs, it doesn't matter how hard it is to write or maintain long ones.
Smith's (First) Law: Any sufficiently large test suite for a program written in a dynamic language will contain an ad-hoc, informally-specified, bug-ridden, slow, patchy implementation of half of the Haskell type system.
Yegge's Axiom of Size: Large systems suck. This rule is 100% transitive. If you build one, you suck.
