But there is a lot of "personally" in this thread, of course.

Why do you hate it?

It's a bit like saying,
 - I hate database normalization, better to keep all rows in one single table.
or even,
 - I hate directories.

I have thousands of objects, it would be a total mess to keep them all in a single directory.

Using a normalized directory structure makes sense for the SCM use-case,
I haven't seen any projects where all the files are kept in one directory.
