This is what I love about C#, it really provides all the necessary components to do this style of "wishful development". I've started doing this everywhere and the results are great. Like you said, the code itself literally reads like a specification. It's allowed me to turn what is otherwise would have been an extremely tedious web application into something I enjoy working on.

As an example, I turned what otherwise would have been an extremely tedious exercise in writing tons of obscure SQL (creating reports from a very non-standard database layout) into an API for creating reports that is literally like reading the specification for the report. And all of it was done in about 250 lines of C#. And to top it off we still have complete static type checking! I really cannot sing the praises of C# enough.
