How many lines would you estimate it takes to capture that production reality of something like CC? I ask because I got downvoted for asking that question on a different story[1].
I asked because in that thread someone quoted the CC dev(s) as saying:
>> In the last thirty days, I landed 259 PRs -- 497 commits, 40k lines added, 38k lines removed.
My feeling is that a tool like this, while it won't be 200 lines, can't really be 40k lines either.
