Japanese term or phrase: how to cope with a complicated sentence like this?
クラス構造を意識して直接ソースコードに手を入れる方式が一般的ですが、このようなカスタマイズは実際はソースコードを公開して自由に変更させる方式に近く、コンポーネントベース開発のメリットを損なう恐れが大きいためです。how to cope with a complicated sentence like this?

English translation:Need context
Explanation:
I guess there must be another sentence before this sentence. The previous sentence shows some instructions under a certain situation and then this sentence shows a reason that user(?) should follow the instructions. So I'll break down this sentence the following way: (このような場合においては)クラス構造を意識して直接ソースコードを書き換える方式が一般的です。しかしながら、この方式は実質的に「ソースコードをユーザに公開し、ユーザがソースコードを自由に変更できる」という方式に近いこと、したがってコンポーネントベース開発のメリットを損なう恐れが大きいことから、前述の方式(I guess this method is mentioned in the previous sentence.)を(推奨します)。
The part in parenthesis is added by me.
