Disagree with "Decoupling" never used or "if used, they are pulling a fast one on you". It not only will help make his point of decreasing line-count, but more importantly, it is one of the main principles in achieving DRY-ness (both code-level and more importantly, architectural level DRY-ness). I'll even go further and say that if you're not thinking about it all the time, you're most likely doing it wrong.
