I've not been fully following this thread, but this comment caught my
eye.  I think that is a very dangerous assertion to make.  Good code is
often used in ways its original author didn't envisage.  Of course, the
worse your code, the more likely your comment is to be true.  ;-)

This is a general comment and you might feel that it doesn't apply in
this specific case.  You might well be right, but I think that in
general good designs try hard not to paint themselves into a corner.
