Seriously, though. The principle of expressive encapsulation is one of
the basic cornerstones of writing computer programs. Performance barely
ever becomes a question, and even more rarely has anything to do with
the number of function calls (low-level programming language compilers
optimize efficiently).
The most important objective of software development is the management
of complexity. Silly performance optimizations are way down the priority
list.

Sadly, this *is* the current mindset.
"Don't bother optimizing, the compiler does it better than you can."
Tell me, who writes the compilers? When we die off, nobody will have a
clue how to do it...
