Why are Long Transmission Lines Transposed but small Lines are not?

Why are long transmission lines transposed but small lines are not?

Transmission lines are transposed to compensate for electrical unbalance generated by mutual capacitance and inductance between the line’s conductors. This is especially true for long transmission lines, where the length of the line approaches the wavelength of the AC signals being conveyed. This is why longer transmission lines are transposed …
