Yes, as we all know, when evaluating which programming language to use, you should get a line count of the compiler's repo. More lines = more capabilities.

Why would I ever want a language with less capabilities?

Genuinely hard to tell if satire.

Just in case not, consider whether the short function

   def is_even(x):
      return (x%2) == 0

Handles a wider range of input conditions than the higher LOC function

   def is_even(x):
     if x == 0:
       return True
     if x == 2:
       return True
     if x == 4:
       return True
     ...
     return False

'Means' according to what? Put some (laughtable) reference so I can laught louder.
