I fail to see any advantage to that structure.  Wouldn't this be
even better in any case? :

   subroutineCallToDoThis()
   subroutineCallToDoThat()

It's more concise, self-documenting, more modular, maintainable,
more testable, and so forth....

Just what value does "bundle" provide?  Your example doesn't show it.
