[swift-evolution] Proposal: Require functions to have a cyclomatic complexity of <= 10.

[davesweeris at mac.com]

You’ve missed my point… (although, to be fair, it should’ve read “640k”)

Saying, as a language restriction, that you can’t have a cyclomatic complexity > 10 is like saying that you can’t have more than x functions in a file, y lines of code in a function, or n properties in a struct. Why? What’s the point?
