> The less I write, the less there is to break

Not when you're writing consumable services IMO. The less you write in building a REST API, for example, the _more_ opportunity there is for someone to break it. It's important to catch exceptions, write detailed models, write tests for fail/success cases etc...

It's a good principle (optimizing for less code), but not always.
