Absolutely insane to me that you’d pay $35k for a car, and then pay a subscription for basics like cruise control and phone connectivity. The free market free marketing again. Legislate against this now.

But can I ask why that would put you off the series? The books are essentially a product of the society the author wrote them in, so it’s not as if they present an unbelievable social narrative, as it’s emblematic of British society as you said. Is it that you want/expect more of an engaged society from the magical world, or is it just boring to read of social attitudes that are so close to our own. Genuinely curious, as I’m not a massive fan of the series myself, but for other reasons :) I’ve never considered your point of view so it’d be good to understand

I think this can be resolved with code review (as others have mentioned), but there’s also a lack of understanding on how to use the components you have created. Maybe a quick email politely explaining the theory/approach behind these base classes, with some examples of do-s and don’t-s could work alongside code review to enforce the change
