Not really - clarity is important but the size of code isn't too meaningful in and of itself. Please if you don't really understand what you're sending try to understand it first, don't throw things out without that. I know a number of other maintainers have already raised concerns about the quality of what's being sent and the effort required to review them in relation to their value. There's nothing wrong with doing small cleanups but if that's all you're sending and there's often problems then it becomes more trouble than it's worth to review your changes.
