Can I ask why?  
My experience is having less flows as a goal makes the flows more complex, errorproje and hard to debug.  
So i would suggest, think before you start doing that (and maybe take a look at my post [on how to structure your flows](https://community.homey.app/t/how-to-structure-your-flows/25109) (which does result in much more flows…))
