I like this post a lot, even if it's a somewhat contrived example. In particular I like his point about switch statements making it easier to pulled out shared logic vs. polymorphic code.

There's so much emphasis on writing "clean" code (rightly so) that it's nice to hear an opposing viewpoint. I think it's a good reminder to not be dogmatic and that there are many ways to solve a problem, each with their own pros/cons. It's our job to find the best way.
