You're 100% correct, the idea is nice and will definitely save some time at the beginning, but with time and team growth, it becomes quite a mess specially if there's no proper documentation on how to use such files, and no one documents their work... Right now I'm working for a company that uses this approach, with old javascript split in different repositories, it is really impossible to debug and sometimes I take days just to find the right piece of code to update.
