I don't think most enum-to-function mappings are distinct sets of concepts.

In my own code, I have used the enum name to map to a set of functions related to that enum value. The association is implicit in the name of the enum value and the name of the functions. No way to mess that up like this.

If it was:

    case: KIND_BOX: return parseObjectOfKindBox();

It's no difference. Still repeating "Box".
