I don't think this is true at all.
Sure it's true of /sys/src/cmd/*.c, but that's
the directory that contains all the one-file programs,
and most of them are tiny enough that splitting them
up would just be annoying (there are exceptions).

But there are plenty of programs that are split into
separately compiled pieces, both in the sense of
libraries and just multiple files for different pieces
(look in /sys/src/cmd/acme for example).

I split my programs into pieces that make it easier
for me to think about.  If that happens to coincide
with what some people call modules, great, and
if it doesn't, well too bad for them.
