Those that are brilliant experienced Forth programmers can probably get away with writing long complex definitions. Kudos to them! But I'm not brilliant. My short-term memory can't handle that many items. Too much stack juggling confuses me. Writing a metacompiler took me tree attempts. So when I'm writing a definition and I'm losing track its internal stack state, I break it up. When I can glance at a definition and immediately see that it's "obviously correct", then I'm happy. But I'm not advocating this for everyone. By all means, use whatever style you're comfortable with.
