It's not unusual for a few people working for a couple of years to write a program that could have a million parts in it, different parts, which is maybe, say, 300,000 lines of code. To design a physical system that has a million different parts, that's a mega-project, that's very rare. Now you'll find many times people make a physical object with a million parts, but typically it's many copies of the same subunit and that's much easier to design &mdash; that's not a million different parts in the design.
