why put multiple statements on the same line if you have nothing to hide?

Because it's more readable.

Do

you

truly

find having

only a few

words per line

more

readable?

Does

it aid

with

comprehension?

I find having a high word density to be the most "readable", and it doesn't seem to matter whether it's C or English.

The TinySSH source code is small enough that I was able to read it in about 25 minutes and I learned about the SSH protocol along the way.

Note that,

that being said,

breaking a sentence across multiple lines

does help with comprehension

when you break on clause boundaries.
