It needs the right balance. 95%+ of classes absolutely should not do this, but it's great for the handful of times when a class is complex, nuanced, and used prolifically.

Assuming good documentation, it just means a few extra minutes learning what some terms mean, and that's worth it in the long run in my experience.

Is there a way to describe an example of such a class? That sounds like it could have a proper descriptive name, it'd just be a bit harder to come up with.
