I am the "bad guy" of the thread, so anything I say will be seen negatively, even if it's correct. This is typical human behavior, unfortunately.

I have a feeling most people here do not understand DRY done well, and are used to confusing inheritance hierarchies and incredibly deep function chains. Essentially they have conflated DRY with bad code, simple as that.

You’re not the bad guy, I’m guessing maybe it’s a community of data workers who’ve never had a reason to value DRY.
