I already disagree here...

I'm afraid that you are still confusing the largeness of the *change* with the complexity of the *result* after the change was implemented.

That's not how code reviews work, as their complexity is governed by the number of lines changed (added/removed/modified), not just the number of lines that are left at the end. That said, "deletes more lines than it adds" is typically a point strongly in favour of a particular change.

Cheers,
Nick.
