I see no reason to think this is the case, do you have
data. I would guess that more and larger programs are
being written all the time. Yes, the *proportion* of
large programs may be smaller, due to the activities
you talk about, but to say there is a significant decline
in large programs seems unsupportable to me, and quite
at odds with my impressions.
