In some places it does matter, especially in the kernel.
Prove it.
Splitting up a 200 lines functions in 10 helper functions IMO is ugly, especially when those helper functions are only used by that one single function. To avoid code duplication I *do* create helper functions, but most often only for things that can be shared with other code. I don't have problems with functions with a few hundreds of lines of code as long as the coding style is acceptable and it is sufficiently documented with comments.
However, we're going off topic...

Ok. I'll not argument against 200 line long functions then since it seems I won't get anywhere.
