Says who?  (especially the 2-3 methods per file thing)

Yes, method definitions should be refactored to be short so they can
fit in memory easily.  But it irks me when people set this to n-lines.

I much prefer the metrics of 'one concept per method' and 'a small
amount of nesting' to just setting arbitrary number of lines and an
arbitrary number of methods.
