It also separates much of the signal, and keeps some of the noise around. 
This is the reason why nested classes and new Runnable () {} syntax were 
introduced in the first place: too much delocalisation of code.

Personally, I think it is a good idea to [editor's note: see page 298 for 
this chunk of the sentence] because it allows you to [editor's note: see 
page 752 for the rest of the sentence]. /* this sentence was MODULARISED 
for grammatical reasons ! enjoy ! */
