Mostly it is, but each function has (typically) to:
- check some preconditions (is the user logged in, is she authorized?)
- initialize or retrieve some domain objects
- invoke a view (typically a form)
- retrieve data from the posted form
- validate them
- store the domain object
- maybe do the same for one or more other forms in a sequence
- handle exceptions
- etc.
So, even putting most of the code in Java classes, we're still talking of a screenful of lines per function. And in some applications, you might have tens, if not hundreds of them.
