Why would anyone actually &lt;i&gt;do&lt;/i&gt; that?  That isn&apos;t DRY refactoring, that&apos;s cargo cult refactoring.&lt;p&gt;DRY is not, was never, and should never be about unnecessarily replacing clean, well-factored code with @$2!% shared mutable state. The goal is to normalize your code, not to micro-optimize for keystroke count. No.  Nonononononono. Just no.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>In Defense of Copy and Paste</title><url>http://zacharyvoase.com/2013/02/08/copypasta/</url></story>
