But in the spirit, how is a single method "stronger?" Usable in more places, maybe? Often hides too much, such that it really can't be used everywhere.
Describes more things? Well, yeah? But not in meaningful way. At this level of "abstraction," a car is indistinguishable from a bike. Certainly fair for some contexts. Not many relevant ones, though.
And it is that last, that I think sticks. What is the most you can stick to an abstract set of capabilities? That will give you the most utility.
It does mean the cost of implementation raises. But that is realistic?
