Then I compare that to the size of all the dozens of small open source libraries we use. This frequently outweighs the code we've written ourselves around 10:1. The boxes shrink to make room for bigger squares holding them up.

Imagine if we'd had to write those ourselves. Or pay someone else to do it. We would have spent ten times more on salaries than we've currently spent on development. It's often unclear that the company could ever be viable under those circumstances.
