I am not implying that.
My bad. Then we agree :-)
As a practical matter, most attempts to write a tightly coupled system will result in something slower than a loosely coupled system could have been. This is certainly a strategy that one would only try with very good reason.
Yup. I think the point many people miss is that loosely coupled code/design doesn't necessarily lead to a hideously inefficient implementation. Even a naive loosely coupled implementation is not necessarily inefficient. Take into account the fact that compilers have got jolly clever over the years and picking a tightly coupled solution without a very good reason is foolish in the extreme.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
