I have thought about breaking the cell into smaller ones. In my workflow, the cell will be recalculated with some variables modified. If the whole calculation is not in one single cell, I have to press Shift+Enter for each of the smaller cells. And I bet I will miss some cell sometimes and get the wrong answer in the end.
