I'd based it on code complexity.
If it's one call (and error handling) to do it then inline makes sense.
If it's lots of lines, a separate function make sense.
Where the boundary between the two lies is subjective so I tend to
just go with whatever an author prefers. Note that I'm not keen
to see the noise of refactors if the code lies in this gray area?
