That one-page program, short snippet, or script? It's going to bloat and one day become a full-fledged text editor or something equally ridiculous. That's why I don't like using shortcuts even for short programs.
I strongly disagree. A lot of my personal projects are, for example, written as single HTML pages, with inline styles and javascript, and rarely extend beyond ~300 lines total.
Adding a build just isn't a worthwhile upfront cost when I can just write code and have it run with zero setup.
Assuming it'll bloat or expand is something I save for professional projects. In both cases my experience backs up that decision.
