It is quite true as a generalization but in practice border line
between application and a library is not that clear. You often
have common modules used in various parts of an application. Kind
of internal mini-libraries.
Also every time you catch yourself doing any sort of copy-paste,
it is quite possible that it can be replaced by mixin / template
mixin instead. Application that are built in more declarative way
benefit more from such tool set than traditional imperative ones.
