Completely wrong :)
You apparently have the luxury of only working on programs written by yourself.

In my world, we are called upon to make rapid changes in programs written by 
twenty programmers over twenty years.
You haven't specified *how* you ensure that your counters are unique, and by 
the way, the issue is not just counters, but any variable.

What has the length of the program to do with it?
 always abide to the rule that a for next counter in any internal 
ubroutine has to be unique.
hat way even if the sub is called from within a for next loop the 
ounters never conflict.
o it doesn't make any difference whatsoever if a program is 80 or 8000 
ines long.
BTW a program with 8000 lines is usually a sign of poor design.

 I like to use increasing roman numerals:
 FOR I = 1 TO COUNTER
   GOSUB PROCESS
 EXT I
 PROCESS:
 OR II = 1 TO COUNTER2
   FOR III = 1 TO COUNTER3
     FOR IV = 1 TO COUNTER4

     NEXT IV
   NEXT III
 EXT II
 ETURN

 n a related note, any clever ideas to localize a variable to a local
 ubroutine?
 For I = 1 to 10
    GOSUB PROCESS
 ext I
 top
 3000 Lines of code later....
 PROCESS:
 OR I = 1 TO 20
 RINT I
 EXT I
 ETURN
