The elephant in the room is without strong static typing and a good type checker changing abstractions is somewhere between a significant pain in the ass and downright perilous.
In my experience when you have those things, whether you make significant changes to your API or decide to dedupe old divergent copy pastes, it’s largely just busy work — very little thought involved. The type checker says change line 135 in file foo. Okay, next.
