I also sign up into thought school where “principles” went bankrupt. When I see someone quoting principle as a sole reason for code change it automatically shouts it is shallow explanation without much thought.
We could adopt a principle to solve this problem: something that reminds us that abstractions aren't free.
This is the source of the problem of the blind application of principles - which tend to increase the number of abstractions. They aren't free, and people act as if they are.
Even good abstractions have a cost. But in a good abstraction, the benefits outweigh the costs.
