As a scientist that ends up working closely with actual professional software engineers... lots of the stuff they do looks like this do me, and I can't for the life of me make sense of why you'd do it.

I have seen a single line of code passed through 4 "interface functions" before it is called that call each other sequentially, and are of course in separate files in separate folders.

It makes reading the code to figure out what it does exhausting, and a few levels in you start to wonder if you're even looking at the right area, and if it will ever get to the part where it actually computes something.
