I think people who write code like this must get paid by the line. A couple 
of years ago I worked some overtime over Christmass/New Year to refactor a 
system like this that was getting out of control. In 5 days I turned 10,000 
lines of code with layers into 1,000 lines of code with just 1 layer that 
did exactly the same thing - then booked myself a cheap holiday in early 
January to enjoy my TOIL.

I'm not saying its always the right answer, but when someone tells you that 
you must have lots of layers, I would always question them and their 
motives.
