I understand that is the historical reason why, however I think that "as
much as possible" should be "always".

If you think you have a patch which cannot be split up, I would send it for
pre-commit review and ask the reviewers if they see any way to split it up,
and if not, are OK with it being landed as a large patch. It is extremely
rare that this actually can't be done.
