I equate it to me getting old and not really having to worry too much about organization back in the day because project sizes were nothing compared to today's. That's probably why I prefer to code in QB64. It's fun and easy to whip up something cool in a minimal amount of time.
I also try to keep all main code in one file and libraries in a separate file (one .BI and one .BM), or even a few if I'm loading multiple libraries. I also like to keep assets (sounds, graphics, etc..) within the same working directory as the code and avoid using subdirectories as much as possible.
Just my style, YMMV.
