You are only imagining the case when you have already opened/identified all of the files you intend to work on.

Actual workflows diverge significantly from the above. It's a matter of cohesion. Yes, co-locating each of the files (and only these files) in a single "component" directory can help ease navigation and discovery, but most of the time it's just easier to keep everything as cohesive as possible.
