When I spotted this [because of an un-wanted behaviour] and tried to fix it a firestorm developed. So I stopped coding.
A firestorm [lots of Classes suddenly saying wrong!] is a sure sign that your architecture is gang awry. The worst time to fix this is when you first spot it. Just walk away and try not to think about it, have a drink and make chips...
The strange thing about coding is that it isn't what you do that matters, it's your ability to know when not to do that counts.
Tomorrow, or some other day, I'll come back to this an it will be simple-ish. Today I would have crafted a monster.
