I think a rule for the maximum number of lines in a function is a bad idea.

Keep functions small — short (Ideal: 4 lines, Maximum: 60 lines, the whole function must fit into the screen, so that it’s easy to read without vertical scrolling) and not too wide (Up to 70 to 120 characters, it’s easy to read the whole line without horizontal scrolling).

I think a rule for the maximum number of lines in a function is a bad idea. It leads to junior developers arbitrarily breaking up a function without careful consideration to separation of concerns.
