Let me see. I can change about a zillion lines in 2 minutes. In IntelliJ I can just highlight the top level and hit command-alt-l. Reformats all the code in all the java modules.
Depending on the problem/framework, I can also hit a button that auto-generates code. Which is often a wonderful tool, sure beats writing all the boilerplate by hand. But only applicable to a subset of problems. Lines-of-code has always been a lousy metric. One of the interesting moments in a developer's maturation is realizing that furiously beating up the keyboard is not particularly related to productivity over the long term. I've spent far too much of my development career cleaning up after cowboys who wrote a lot of sloppy code, but they sure wrote it quickly. You might have noticed that you're getting a rather negative response. It's really unhelpful to say "do it differently" without providing examples or any other useful information about _how_ to "do it differently", examples that actually apply to the problem at hand.
