Oof. The same old excuse. So you prematurely optimize your code based on a theoretical line count in the future, cluttering your code with redundant information to save yourself from that one bug you'll encounter in QA anyways. Got it. Makes total sense. I bet you like Java FactoryFactoryImpls as well.

If you already know your code will reach 10 kloc in a project where catching a type related bug is that important, choose an appropriate type safe language. So many wasted man hours dealing with truly pedantic details.
