I have been thinking about this since a while and came to "conceptual programming", which, so my conclusion, is more than enough to achieve a doctor's degree.

Loop is probably the wrong word. It means "complex structure to be refined". Starts with the whole thing one needs to break down. Each break down should fit one page.

A loop should fit one screen page. That gives you a rough overview at a glance. You will then go into details in the next step. 100 lines would not fit one page (my eyes are too old and the screen resolution too). Every time you need to scroll, it starts messing up your mind. In former times we had printouts from the line printer. The two pages are still about the same that fits one screen page.
