It is not so much about splitting as it is about principles like SRP. Somehow SRP will guarantee the small size of design elements and a good design, but splitting without clear criteria does not necessarily imply a good design. Big size elements are "smells", and just splitting without clear criteria is not the final answer for such a smell.

Splitters are the writers, lumpers are the readers.

However writing small focused posts is a right way to do it as well πŸ‘‰ splitters

I can't agree more really. I always have icky code to start. This is partly because I need the motivation by having something actually "work", then I'm energized and can proceed to make it right.
