To rephrase crudely: "inline everything".

This is infeasible in most languages, but if your language and concise and expressive enough, it becomes possible again to a large degree.

I always think about how Arthur Whitney just really hates scrolling. Let alone 20 open files and chains of "jump to definition". When the whole program fits on page, all that vanishes. You navigate with eye movements.
