Small files will tend to conflict on any change simply because the
change is likely to be adjacent to a region that has altered, so it
looks like a conflict.

1-line files are really pathological :)

If the 2->3 change was 
-A
+B

and a 3->4 change did
-B
+C

Then reversing the 2->3 change tried to do
-B
+A

But there is no B, only C -> conflict.
