> You also seem to have missed the point of the Java example anyway, in a misses-the-forest-for-the-trees way.

Perhaps I did, yes. I do think the kind of thing you’re describing is valuable, to be clear. A lot of my comment was intended more as clarification for other people reading these comments than as an argument against what you were saying. I imagine that if I misunderstood your point, other people are likely to, too, so if anything, your clarification is generally a good outcome, I think!
