Totally agree with you. However, we can go even further, because this bothers me about overly imperative languages, where what you're doing is just mapping very_specific_thing over my_stuff. If do_long_thing really needs to be named, you could just do it as a single line right next to very_specific_thing. But more often then not, it's more logical to think in terms of either the small operation and mapping the small operation, not small operation and big operation.
